Two distinct pathways for meiotic crossover formation coexist in most eukaryotes. The Arabidopsis SHOC1 protein is required for class I crossovers and shows sequence similarity with the XPF
endonuclease
family. Active XPF endonucleases form a heterodimer with ERCC1 proteins. Here, we show that PTD, an ERCC1-like protein, is required for class-I-interfering crossovers along with SHOC1, MSH4, MSH5,
MER3
and MLH3. SHOC1 interacts with PTD in a two-hybrid assay, through its XPF-like nuclease-(HhH)(2) domain. We propose that a XPF-ERCC1-like heterodimer, represented by SHOC1 and PTD in Arabidopsis, involving Zip2 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and C9orf84 in human, is required for formation of class I crossovers.
