Journal ArticleDOI

The human mutator gene homolog MSH2 and its association with hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer.

TL;DR: Data and reports indicating that S. cerevisiae msh2 mutations cause an instability of dinucleotide repeats like those associated with H NPCC suggest that hMSH2 is the HNPCC gene.
Journal Article

Diagnostic Microsatellite Instability: Definition and Correlation with Mismatch Repair Protein Expression

TL;DR: These studies provide a clear recommendation for the uniform use of a panel of 10 microsatellites and a definition of at least 40% instability (using these defined marker loci) in the diagnostic analysis of MSI.
Journal ArticleDOI

hMSH2 forms specific mispair-binding complexes with hMSH3 and hMSH6

TL;DR: Analysis of the mismatched nucleotide-binding specificity of the hMSH2-hMSH3 and hMSh2-HMSH6 protein complexes showed that they have overlapping but not identical binding specificity, which helps to explain the distribution of mutations in different mismatch-repair genes seen in hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer.
Journal Article

Loss of DNA mismatch repair in acquired resistance to cisplatin.

TL;DR: To determine whether the loss of DNA mismatch repair itself contributes to cisplatin resistance, studies were carried out in isogenic pairs of cell lines proficient or defective in this function.
