encodes a DNA mismatch repair homolog of human MutS gene, MSH6. There are four MutS genes in Arabidopsis, MSH2, MSH3, MSH6, and MSH7, which all act as heterodimers and bind to 51-mer duplexes. MSH2*MSH7 exhibit moderate affinity for a (T/G) substrate and weak binding of (+T), suggesting MSH2*MSH7 may be specialized for lesions/base mispairs not tested or for (T/G) mispairs in special contexts.
