MSH6 plays a central role in the DNA mismatch repair pathway, functioning as the 160 kDa subunit of the MutS-alpha heterodimer that recognizes and initiates correction of base-base mismatches and small insertion-deletion loops during DNA replication. Defects in MSH6 are associated with hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC5) and contribute to microsatellite instability in various malignancies, making this protein a significant focus in cancer biology, genomic stability research, and studies of DNA repair mechanisms.
This recombinant monoclonal antibody, clone 22F3, offers the reproducibility and consistency that demanding research applications require. Generated against a synthetic peptide derived from human MSH6, the recombinant format ensures sequence-defined specificity and eliminates the lot-to-lot variability that can compromise longitudinal studies or multi-site collaborations. Affinity chromatography purification delivers a high-purity reagent suitable for sensitive detection methods.
Validation across multiple platforms demonstrates this antibody's versatility in your experimental workflows. Immunohistochemistry testing in paraffin-embedded human colorectal cancer tissue confirms reliable detection in clinically relevant sample types, with recommended dilutions of 1:50-1:200. Immunofluorescence studies in HeLa cells reveal clear nuclear localization consistent with MSH6's role in DNA repair, while flow cytometry analysis of the same cell line shows distinct positive population shifts compared to isotype controls, enabling quantitative assessment of MSH6 expression at the single-cell level.
Whether investigating mismatch repair deficiency in tumor samples, characterizing DNA damage responses, or exploring epigenetic and nuclear signaling pathways, this antibody provides a dependable tool for advancing your understanding of genomic maintenance mechanisms.
