Mismatch Repair Protein Msh6<sup>Tt</sup> Is Necessary for Nuclear Division and Gametogenesis in <i>Tetrahymena thermophila</i>

DNA mismatch repair (MMR) improves replication accuracy by up to three orders of magnitude. The MutS protein in <i>E. coli</i> or its eukaryotic homolog, the MutSα (Msh2-Msh6) complex, recognizes base mismatches and initiates the mismatch repair mechanism. Msh6 is an essential protein fo...
