Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 2956
Gene name MutS homolog 6
Gene symbol MSH6
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
GTBPGTMBPHNPCC5HSAPLYNCH5MMRCS3MSH-6p160
Chromosome 2
Chromosome location 2p16.3
Summary This gene encodes a member of the DNA mismatch repair MutS family. In E. coli, the MutS protein helps in the recognition of mismatched nucleotides prior to their repair. A highly conserved region of approximately 150 aa, called the Walker-A adenine nucleo

Protein name DNA mismatch repair protein Msh6 (hMSH6) (G/T mismatch-binding protein) (GTBP) (GTMBP) (MutS protein homolog 6) (MutS-alpha 160 kDa subunit) (p160)
Protein function Component of the post-replicative DNA mismatch repair system (MMR). Heterodimerizes with MSH2 to form MutS alpha, which binds to DNA mismatches thereby initiating DNA repair. When bound, MutS alpha bends the DNA helix and shields approximately 2
