Description : (at4g25540 : 221.0) encodes a DNA mismatch repair homolog of human MutS gene, MSH6. There are four MutS genes in Arabidopsis, MSH2, MSH3, MSH6, and MSH7, which all act as heterodimers and bind to 51-mer duplexes. MSH2*MSH3 heterodimers bound 'insertion-deletion' DNA with three nucleotides (+AAG) or one nucleotide (+T) looped out much better than they bound DNA with a base/base mispair (T/G).; homolog of DNA mismatch repair protein MSH3 (MSH3); CONTAINS InterPro DOMAIN/s: DNA mismatch repair protein MutS, clamp (InterPro:IPR007861), DNA mismatch repair protein MutS, connector (InterPro:IPR007860), DNA mismatch repair protein MutS, N-terminal (InterPro:IPR016151), DNA mismatch repair protein MutS, core (InterPro:IPR007696), DNA mismatch repair protein MutS, C-terminal (InterPro:IPR000432), DNA mismatch repair protein MutS-like, N-terminal (InterPro:IPR007695); BEST Arabidopsis thaliana protein match is: MUTS homolog 6 (TAIR:AT4G02070.2); Has 14547 Blast hits to 13713 proteins in 2703 species: Archae - 153; Bacteria - 9793; Metazoa - 705; Fungi - 864; Plants - 451; Viruses - 3; Other Eukaryotes - 2578 (source: NCBI BLink). & (q9xgc9|msh2_maize : 121.0) DNA mismatch repair protein MSH2 (MUS1) - Zea mays (Maize) & (reliability: 442.0) & (original description: no original description)
