This family includes the Smr (Small MutS Related) proteins, andthe C-terminal region of the MutS2 protein. It has been suggested that this domain interacts with the MutS1 Swiss:P23909 protein in the case of Smr proteins and with the N-terminal MutS related region of MutS2 Swiss:P94545 [1]. This domain exhibits nicking endonuclease activity that might have a role in mismatch repair or genetic recombination. It shows no significant double strand cleavage or exonuclease activity [2]. The full-length Swiss:Q86UW6 also has the polynucleotide kinase activity.
