Avoidance of rNMP-induced mutations via RNaseH2 and Srs2-Exo1 dependent mechanisms

Srs2 helicase is known to dismantle nucleofilaments of the Rad51 recombinase to prevent spurious recombination events1–3, 4, 5, 6 and unwind trinucleotide sequences that are prone to hairpin formation7. Here we document a new, unexpected genome maintenance role of Srs2 in the suppression of mutation...
