MutS has an ATPase activity that is required for mismatch repair, in Escherichia coli, mismatches are detected by a dimer of the mismatch repair protein MutS.

In Escherichia coli,  the complex of MutS and the mismatch-containing DNA recruits MutL, a second protein component of the repair system.

In Escherichia coli MMR system, MutL, in turn, activates MutH, an enzyme that causes an incision or nick on one strand near the site of the mismatch.

Eukaryotic cells also repair mismatches and do so using homologs to MutS (called MSH proteins for “MutS homologs”) and MutL (called MLH and PMS
