Mismatch repair protein 2 (MSH2) possesses four domains and belongs to the mismatch repair (MMR) gene family. The gene encoding this protein is localized on human chromosome 2p21.
Immunogen
recombinant human mismatch repair protein 2 (MSH2).
Biochem/physiol Actions
Mismatch repair protein 2 (MSH2) plays a very important role in the DNA mismatch repair system. It repairs DNA damage which is induced by drugs. MSH2 dysfunction has been associated with nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (Lynch syndrome).

γδT cells function as sentinels in early host responses to infections and malignancies. Previously, we found ectopically expressed human MutS homologue 2 (hMSH2), recognized by γδT cells, triggered a γδT cell-mediated cytolysis to tumor cells. However, the characteristics of hMSH2-specific
The objective of the present study was to investigate the association between paclitaxel resistance, gene copy number, and gene expression in ovarian carcinoma, and to restore paclitaxel sensitivity in a paclitaxel-resistant ovarian carcinoma cell line by using hMSH2-targeting siRNA. Paclitaxel-resistant

The anti-estrogen tamoxifen has been used worldwide as an adjuvant hormone therapeutic agent in the treatment of breast cancer. However, the molecular mechanism of tamoxifen-induced cytotoxicity in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells has not been identified. Human MutS homolog
DNA damage and repair mechanism is vital for maintaining DNA integrity. Damage to cellular DNA is involved in mutagenesis, the development of cancer among others.
