| ORF Classification | Verified |
| Description | Subunit of the structure-specific Mms4p-Mus81p endonuclease that cleaves branched DNA; involved in recombination, DNA repair, and joint molecule formation/resolution during meiotic recombination; phosphorylation of the non-catalytic subunit Mms4p by Cdc28p and Cdcp during mitotic cell cycle activates the function of Mms4p-Mus81p (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) |
