Mph1 requires mismatch repair-independent and -dependent functions of MutSα to regulate crossover formation during homologous recombination repair

Abstract:

In budding yeast the DNA helicase Mph1 prevents genome rearrangements during ectopic homologous recombination (HR) by suppressing the formation of crossovers (COs). Here we show that during ectopic HR repair, the anti-CO function of Mph1 is intricately associated with the mismatch repair (MMR) factor, MutSα. In particular, during HR repair using a completely homologous substrate, we reveal an MMR-independent function of MutSα in generating COs that is specifically antagonized by Mph1, but not...
