描述：

MSH2 (3A2) Mouse mAb能够检测内源性MSH2蛋白。该单克隆抗体是由重组人MSH2免疫动物生产的。DNA错配修复系统(MMR)能够修复复制后DNA，抑制非相同DNA序列间的重组，诱导伴随某些DNA损伤类型的检验点和凋亡反应(1)。MSH2 (MutS 同源蛋白2)和MSH6组成的hMutS-α二聚体是错配修复过程必不可少的部分。hMutS-α是BRCA1相关监视蛋白复合体(BRSC)的一部分，该复合体还包括BRCA1, MLH1, ATM, BLM, PMS蛋白和Rad50-Mre11-NBS1复合体(2)。在大部分遗传性非息肉性大肠癌（Lynch综合征）中已发现MSH2的突变，该疾病是西方国家最常见的遗传性结肠癌(3)。突变也与其它的散发性肿瘤相关。

Specificity / Sensitivity

MSH2 (3A2) Mouse mAb detects endogenous levels of total MSH2 protein.

Source / Purification

Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with recombinant human MSH2. 

Background

The DNA mismatch repair system (MMR) repairs post-replication DNA, inhibits recombination between non-identical DNA sequences and induces both checkpoint and apoptotic responses following certain types of DNA damage (1). MSH2 (MutS homologue 2) forms the hMutS-α dimer with MSH6 and is an essential component of the mismatch repair process. hMutS-α is part of the BRCA1-associated surveillance complex (BASC), a complex that also contains BRCA1, MLH1, ATM, BLM, PMS2 proteins and the Rad50-Mre11-NBS1 complex (2). 
 Mutations in MSH2 have been found in a large proportion of hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (Lynch Syndrome), the most common form of inherited colorectal cancer in the Western world (3). Mutations have also been associated with other sporadic tumors.
