Crosstalk between MSH2–MSH3 and polβ promotes trinucleotide repeat expansion during base excision repair

The expansion of trinucleotide repeats can have detrimental effects and give rise to a range of human diseases. Here the authors report that the mismatch repair and the base excision repair machinery can operate together to promote expansion during lesion removal.
