Gene: PMS2
Official Full Name: PMS1 homolog 2, mismatch repair system componentprovided by HGNC
Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a key component of the mismatch repair system that functions to correct DNA mismatches and small insertions and deletions that can occur during DNA replication and homologous recombination. This protein forms heterodimers with the gene product of the mutL homolog 1 (MLH1) gene to form the MutL-alpha heterodimer. The MutL-alpha heterodimer possesses an endonucleolytic activity that is activated following recognition of mismatches and insertion/deletion loops by the MutS-alpha and MutS-beta heterodimers, and is necessary for removal of the mismatched DNA. There is a DQHA(X)2E(X)4E motif found at the C-terminus of the protein encoded by this gene that forms part of the active site of the nuclease. Mutations in this gene have been associated with hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC; also known as Lynch syndrome) and Turcot syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2016]

PMS2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cellular models created by the targeted deletion of the PMS2 gene, which encodes a critical component of the DNA mismatch repair (MMR) system. This gene plays an essential role in maintaining genomic stability by facilitating the repair of mispaired or insertions/deletions in DNA during replication. The functional disruption of PMS2 in these cell lines allows researchers to investigate the implications of MMR deficiency, contributing valuable insights into cancer biology, particularly in hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) and other malignancies associated with MMR gene mutations.
The functionality of PMS2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines is pivotal for studies aimed at unraveling the underlying mechanisms of cancer development and progression. By utilizing these models, researchers can explore cellular responses to DNA-damaging agents, assess the outcomes of novel therapeutic strategies, and study the alterations in cellular signaling pathways resulting from the absence of functional PMS2. Furthermore, these cell lines serve as a crucial tool for screening compounds that may enhance the sensitivity of MMR-deficient tumors to chemotherapy or immunotherapy.
What sets our PMS2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines apart from competitor offerings is our rigorous quality control measures and precise gene editing techniques that assure a consistent and reliable model. Each cell line is extensively characterized, validated, and features confirmed knockout of the PMS2 gene, ensuring that researchers can confidently attribute outcomes to the targeted modification. Additionally, these cell lines come with detailed user guides and extensive customer support, facilitating seamless integration into various research protocols.
