EXO1 promotes the meiotic MLH1-MLH3 endonuclease through conserved interactions with MLH1, MSH4 and DNA

Abstract The endonuclease activity of MLH1-MLH3 (MutLγ) is stimulated by MSH4-MSH5 (MutSγ), EXO1, and RFC-PCNA to resolve meiotic recombination intermediates such as double Holliday junctions (HJs) into crossovers. We show that EXO1 directly interacts with MLH1 via the EXO1 MIP motif and a patch cen...
