The DNA mismatch repair genes Msh3 and Msh6 cooperate in intestinal tumor suppression.
Repair of mismatches in DNA in mammalian cells is mediated by a complex of proteins that are members of two highly conserved families of genes referred to as MutS and MutL homologues. Germline mutations in several members of these families, MSH2, MSH6, MLH1, and PMS2, but not MSH3, are responsible for hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer. To examine the role of MSH3, we generated a mouse ...
متن کاملThe Distinct Spectra of Tumor-associated Apc Mutations in Mismatch Repair-deficient Apc Mice Define the Roles of MSH3 and MSH6 in DNA Repair and Intestinal Tumorigenesis
In mammalian cells, mismatch recognition has been attributed to two partially redundant heterodimeric protein complexes of MutS homologues, MSH2-MSH3 and MSH2-MSH6. We have conducted a comparative analysis of Msh3 and Msh6 deficiency in mouse intestinal tumorigenesis by generating Apc mice deficient in Msh3, Msh6 or both. We have found that Apc mice defective in Msh6 show reduced survival and a...

متن کاملMismatch repair deficiency associated with overexpression of the MSH3 gene.
We tested the ability of recombinant hMutSalpha (hMSH2/hMSH6) and hMutSbeta (hMSH2/hMSH3) heterodimers to complement the mismatch repair defect of HEC59, a human cancer cell line whose extracts lack all three MutS homologues. Although repair of both base/base mispairs and insertion-deletion loops was restored by hMutSalpha, only the latter substrates were addressed in extracts supplemented with...
متن کاملMismatch-repair protein MSH6 is associated with Ku70 and regulates DNA double-strand break repair
MSH6, a key component of the MSH2-MSH6 complex, plays a fundamental role in the repair of mismatched DNA bases. Herein, we report that MSH6 is a novel Ku70-interacting protein identified by yeast two-hybrid screening. Ku70 and Ku86 are two key regulatory subunits of the DNA-dependent protein kinase, which plays an essential role in repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) through the non-homol...
