Sensing and Processing of DNA Interstrand Crosslinks by the Mismatch Repair Pathway

Summary: DNA interstrand crosslinks (ICLs) that are repaired in non-dividing cells must be recognized independently of replication-associated DNA unwinding. Using cell-free extracts from Xenopus eggs that support neither replication nor transcription, we establish that ICLs are recognized and proces...
