sce:EXO1;DIN7
Genes: 33
SGD Description5'-3' exonuclease and flap-endonuclease; involved in recombination, double-strand break repair, MMS2 error-free branch of the post replication (PRR) pathway and DNA mismatch repair; role in telomere maintenance; member of the Rad2p nuclease family, with conserved N and I nuclease domains; relative distribution to the nucleus increases upon DNA replication stress; EXO1 has a paralog, DIN7, that arose from the whole genome duplication|Mitochondrial nuclease functioning in DNA repair and replication; modulates the stability of the mitochondrial genome, induced by exposure to mutagens, also induced during meiosis at a time nearly coincident with commitment to recombination; DIN7 has a paralog, EXO1, that arose from the whole genome duplication
PomBase Descriptionexonuclease I Exo1
AspGD DescriptionOrtholog(s) have 5'-3' exonuclease activity, 5'-flap endonuclease activity
