Exo1 protects DNA nicks from ligation to promote crossover formation during meiosis.

Exo1 protects DNA nicks from ligation to promote crossover formation during meiosis.

In most sexually reproducing organisms crossing over between chromosome homologs during meiosis is essential to produce haploid gametes. Most crossovers that form in meiosis in budding yeast result from the biased resolution of double Holliday junction (dHJ) intermediates. This dHJ resolution step i...
