General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction yeast strains deleted for both YEN1 and MMS4 show a reduction in growth rate, and are very sensitive to DNA-damaging agents. Yeast cells are unable to carry out meiosis in the absence of both resolvases Saccharomyces cerevisiae
physiological function Holliday junctions need to be resolved to allow chromosome segregation, they are formed during homologous recombination. Both Yen1 and Mms4/Mus81 play important but not identical roles during vegetative growth and in meiosis. Yen1 and Mms4/Mus81 act as alternative resolvases for recombination events in meiosis, and the activity of at least one of them is essential to ensure proper meiosis and sporulation Saccharomyces cerevisiae
