Abstract excerpt
Interference-dependent crossing over in yeast and mammalian meioses involves the mismatch repair protein homologs MSH4-MSH5 and MLH1-MLH3. The MLH3 protein contains a highly conserved metal-binding motif DQHA(X)(2)E(X)(4)E that is found in a subset of MLH proteins predicted to have endonuclease a...
