Identification of the Oncogenic Role of MSH2 in the Stemness and Progression of Glioma Through Regulating Wnt Signaling Pathway [PDF]
Background Glioma is one of the most aggressive brain tumors, and its progression is often associated with stemness maintenance and therapy resistance. The role of MSH2 in glioma remains largely unclear.

Mlh2 is an accessory factor for DNA mismatch repair in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. [PDF]
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the essential mismatch repair (MMR) endonuclease Mlh1-Pms1 forms foci promoted by Msh2-Msh6 or Msh2-Msh3 in response to mispaired bases. Here we analyzed the Mlh1-Mlh2 complex, whose role in MMR has been unclear.

The mismatch repair system protects against intergenerational GAA repeat instability in a Friedreich ataxia mouse model [PDF]
Friedreich ataxia (FRDA) is an autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder caused by a dynamic GAA repeat expansion mutation within intron 1 of the FXN gene.

Parameters of Reserpine Analogs That Induce MSH2/MSH6-Dependent Cytotoxic Response [PDF]
Mismatch repair proteins modulate the cytotoxicity of several chemotherapeutic agents. We have recently proposed a “death conformation” of the MutS homologous proteins that is distinguishable from their “repair conformation.” This conformation can be ...

The decrease in Rad51 and DNA ligase IV nuclear protein expression in Msh2 knockdown HC11 cells induced the low CRISPR/Cas9-mediated knock-in efficiency at the β-casein gene locus [PDF]
Objective Successful gene editing technology is crucial in molecular biology and related fields. An essential part of an efficient knock-in system is increasing homologous recombination (HR) efficiency in the double-strand break (DSB) repair pathways ...

Contribution of MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 large genomic rearrangements to Pakistani colorectal cancer patients [PDF]
Background Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the fourth most common cancer in Pakistan and poses significant public health challenges. While the majority of CRC cases are sporadic, ~ 5–10% are hereditary, linked to germline pathogenic variants (PVs) in mismatch
