MutL homologs in restriction-modification systems and the origin of eukaryotic MORC ATPases

<p>Abstract</p> <p/> <p>The provenance and biochemical roles of eukaryotic MORC proteins have remained poorly understood since the discovery of their prototype MORC1, which is required for meiotic nuclear division in animals. The MORC family contains a combination of a gyrase...
