The human Holliday junction resolvase GEN1 rescues the meiotic phenotype of a Schizosaccharomyces pombe mus81 mutant.

A key step in meiotic recombination involves the nucleolytic resolution of Holliday junctions to generate crossovers. Although the enzyme that performs this function in human cells is presently unknown, recent studies led to the identification of the XPG-family endonuclease GEN1 that promotes Hollid...
