Enhancement of MSH2–MSH3-mediated mismatch recognition by the yeast MLH1–PMS1 complex
DNA mismatch repair has a key role in maintaining genomic stability. Defects in mismatch repair cause elevated spontaneous mutation rates and increased instability of simple repetitive sequences, while mutations in human mismatch repair genes result in hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancers. Mismatch recognition represents the first critical step of mismatch repair. Genetic and biochemical ...
متن کاملMlh2 Is an Accessory Factor for DNA Mismatch Repair in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the essential mismatch repair (MMR) endonuclease Mlh1-Pms1 forms foci promoted by Msh2-Msh6 or Msh2-Msh3 in response to mispaired bases. Here we analyzed the Mlh1-Mlh2 complex, whose role in MMR has been unclear. Mlh1-Mlh2 formed foci that often colocalized with and had a longer lifetime than Mlh1-Pms1 foci. Mlh1-Mlh2 foci were similar to Mlh1-Pms1 foci: they requir...
متن کاملReconstitution of Saccharomyces cerevisiae DNA polymerase ε-dependent mismatch repair with purified proteins.
Mammalian and Saccharomyces cerevisiae mismatch repair (MMR) proteins catalyze two MMR reactions in vitro. In one, mispair binding by either the MutS homolog 2 (Msh2)-MutS homolog 6 (Msh6) or the Msh2-MutS homolog 3 (Msh3) stimulates 5' to 3' excision by exonuclease 1 (Exo1) from a single-strand break 5' to the mispair, excising the mispair. In the other, Msh2-Msh6 or Msh2-Msh3 activate the Mut...
متن کاملVisualization of Eukaryotic DNA Mismatch Repair Reveals Distinct Recognition and Repair Intermediates
DNA mismatch repair (MMR) increases replication fidelity by eliminating mispaired bases resulting from replication errors. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, mispairs are primarily detected by the Msh2-Msh6 complex and corrected following recruitment of the Mlh1-Pms1 complex. Here, we visualized functional fluorescent versions of Msh2-Msh6 and Mlh1-Pms1 in living cells. We found that the Msh2-Msh6 co...
متن کاملRole of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Msh2 and Msh3 repair proteins in double-strand break-induced recombination.
When gene conversion is initiated by a double-strand break (DSB), any nonhomologous DNA that may be present at the ends must be removed before new DNA synthesis can be initiated. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, removal of nonhomologous ends depends not only on the nucleotide excision repair endonuclease Rad1/Rad10 but also on Msh2 and Msh3, two proteins that are required to correct mismatched bp. ...
