- Extra Details:
- MSH2 is a ubiquitously expressed nuclear protein that is involved in DNA repair processes. MSH2 is active as a heterodimer of MutS alpha and beta subunits that bind DNA at mismatched strands. The MutS alpha subunit binds to single base mismatches and dinucleotide insertion-deletion loops, whereas MutS beta detects longer insertion-deletion loops. Bound MutS subunits then form complexes with MutL alpha dimers, to coordinate downstream DNA-mismatch–repair processes. Abnormal expression of MSH2 has been linked to hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer type 1 and Muir-Torre syndrome. Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot and Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Western Blot: 1ug/ml detected MSH2 in 10ug of SW-480 cell lysate. Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for 12 months after receipt. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
