Abstract excerpt
The linear chromosome of Streptomyces exhibits a highly compartmentalized structure with a conserved central region flanked by variable arms. As double strand break (DSB) repair mechanisms play a crucial role in shaping the genome plasticity of Streptomyces, we investigated the role of EndoMS/NucS, a recently characterized endonuclease involved in a non-canonical mismatch repair (MMR) mechanism in archaea and...
