KolodnerEndonuclease reactions to nick closed circular DNA were performed with Mlh1-Pms1 alone or with Mlh1-Pms1, PCNA and RFC-Δ1N. A. Percentage of wild-type cleaved product formed by wild-type Mlh1-Pms1 and mutant Mlh1-Pms1 complexes containing the indicated Pms1 amino acid changes. B. Percentage of wild-type cleaved product formed by wild-type Mlh1-Pms1 and mutant Mlh1-Pms1 complexes containing the indicated Mlh1 amino acid changes. 100% cleavage of the 100 ng of pRS425 in the assay is 2.2 fmoles of cleavage events.
