NCIt definition : DNA mismatch repair protein Mlh1 (756 aa, 85 kDa) is encoded by the human MLH1 gene.
This protein is involved in post-replicative DNA mismatch repair.;
NCIt note : MLH1 is part of the multi-subunit BASC repair complex containing ATM, BLM, MSH2, MSH6,
BRCA1, the RAD50/MRE11/NBS1 complex, and the RFC1/RFC2/RFC4 complex. MLH1 is homologous
to MutL, which hydrolyzes ATP. (from OMIM 120436);
