It has a molecular weight of approximately 87 kDa. This protein is expressed in various tissues but is most abundant in the colonic epithelium and endometrium. MLH1 acts mechanically by forming heterodimers with other proteins collaborating in correcting errors that occur during DNA replication.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nThe function of MLH1 involves its role in the mismatch repair (MMR) system. It is part of a complex with PMS2 forming a heterodimer known as MutLα which is essential for the repair process. This complex scans newly synthesized DNA for mispaired bases and initiates repair preserving genomic integrity. The proper function of MLH1 and its interaction with PMS2 ensures that DNA replication errors do not accumulate and cause harmful mutations.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nMLH1 operates within the mismatch repair pathway and interacts closely with MLH3 and PMS2 proteins. It plays a critical role in the recognition and repair of mismatched bases that occur during DNA replication particularly in the G2 phase of the cell cycle. Through its involvement in the mismatch repair pathway MLH1 is connected to cell cycle regulation and the DNA damage response pathway.\u003cbr\u003e\nMLH1 mutations are closely linked to Lynch syndrome and sporadic colorectal cancer. Lynch syndrome a hereditary condition significantly raises the risk of colorectal cancer and other cancers due to defective DNA mismatch repair. MLH1 mutations often lead to the loss of MLH1 protein expression particularly observed in MLH1 IHC staining. Additionally in colorectal cancer the MLH1 protein may interact with APC and TP53 playing a role in cancer progression and tumorigenesis.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46845059072169,"sku":"ab267223","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab267223","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
