MMR

PMS2

PMS2 is a gene that produces a protein involved in DNA repair, specifically in a process called mismatch repair. This protein works closely with other mismatch repair proteins, including MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6, to detect and fix small errors that occur when DNA is copied in dividing cells. Together, these proteins play an important role …

Mismatch repair proteins (MMR)

What are mismatch repair proteins? Mismatch repair proteins (MMR) are a system inside all normal, healthy cells for fixing mistakes in our genetic material (DNA). The system is made up of different proteins and the four most common are called MSH2, MSH6, MLH1, and PMS2. The four MMR proteins MSH2, MSH6, MLH1, and PMS2 work …
