sce:MSH5
Genes: 15
SGD DescriptionProtein of the MutS family; forms a dimer with Msh4p that facilitates crossovers between homologs during meiosis; msh5-Y823H mutation confers tolerance to DNA alkylating agents; homologs present in C. elegans and humans
AspGD DescriptionOrtholog(s) have role in reciprocal meiotic recombination and nucleus localization
