CAF-I-dependent control of degradation of the discontinuous strands during mismatch repair
31 Jan 2011
Abstract excerpt
DNA mismatch repair (MMR) is a multifunctional process that promotes genetic stability and suppresses carcinogenesis. Correction of DNA replication errors is its major function. Despite the importance of MMR, its functioning in eukaryotes is not well understood. Here we report that human mismatch correction reactions in cell-free extracts occur during concomitant nick-dependent nucleosome assembly shaped by the...
