Genetic analysis of baker's yeast Msh4-Msh5 reveals a threshold crossover level for meiotic viability.
During meiosis, the Msh4-Msh5 complex is thought to stabilize single-end invasion intermediates that form during early stages of recombination and subsequently bind to Holliday junctions to facilitate crossover formation. To analyze Msh4-Msh5 function, we mutagenized 57 residues in Saccharomyces cer...
