Interaction between the Msh2 and Msh6 Nucleotide-binding Sites in the Saccharomyces cerevisiae Msh2-Msh6 Complex [PDF]
Indirect evidence has suggested that the Msh2-Msh6 mispair-binding complex undergoes conformational changes upon binding of ATP and mispairs, resulting in the formation of Msh2-Msh6 sliding clamps and licensing the formation of Msh2-Msh6-Mlh1-Pms1 ternary complexes.

MSH2/MSH6 complex promotes error-free repair of AID-induced dU:G mispairs as well as error-prone hypermutation of A:T sites. [PDF]
Mismatch repair of AID-generated dU:G mispairs is critical for class switch recombination (CSR) and somatic hypermutation (SHM) in B cells. The generation of a previously unavailable Msh2(-/-)Msh6(-/-) mouse has for the first time allowed us to examine ...

An MSH6 germline pathogenic variant p.Gly162Ter associated with Lynch syndrome
We identified a three-generation Russian family with Lynch syndrome with a novel germline variant of the MSH6 gene. An 84-year-old female was diagnosed with endometrial adenocarcinoma at the age of 49 years.

Does sex of the patient play a role in survival for MSI colorectal cancer? [PDF]
Microsatellite instability (MSI) is a feature of colorectal tumors that develops as a result of inactivation of the DNA mismatch repair system. It is found in about 15% of all colorectal cancers and is an important prognostic molecular marker when ...

Somatic Hypermutation in Muts Homologue (Msh)3-, Msh6-, and Msh3/Msh6-Deficient Mice Reveals a Role for the Msh2–Msh6 Heterodimer in Modulating the Base Substitution Pattern [PDF]
Although the primary function of the DNA mismatch repair (MMR) system is to identify and correct base mismatches that have been erroneously introduced during DNA replication, recent studies have further implicated several MMR components in somatic hypermutation of immunoglobulin (Ig) genes.

Objective: Lynch syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder that increases the risk of cancers in many sites. In women, endometrial cancer is often a sentinel tumor and thus immunohistochemistry for mismatch repair (MMR) proteins MLH1, MSH2, MSH6 and ...

FGFR2 amplification in colorectal adenocarcinoma [PDF]
FGFR2 is recurrently amplified in 5% of gastric cancers and 1%–4% of breast cancers; however, this molecular alteration has never been reported in a primary colorectal cancer specimen.

Two stochastic sensors were characterized and validated for the molecular identification and quantification of MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PMS2 and KRAS in biological samples using two types of doped-graphene modified with maltodextrin.

Target enrichment using parallel nanoliter quantitative PCR amplification [PDF]
Background: Next generation targeted resequencing is replacing Sanger sequencing at high pace in routine genetic diagnosis. The need for well validated, high quality enrichment platforms to complement the bench-top next generation sequencing devices is ...

Immunohistochemistry (IHC) for mismatch repair (MMR) proteins is used to identify MMR status: being diffusely positive (intact/retained nuclear staining) or showing loss of nuclear tumour staining (MMR protein deficient). Four colonic adenocarcinomas and
