Summary
Predicted to enable several functions, including DNA binding activity; chromatin binding activity; and methylated histone binding activity. Predicted to contribute to several functions, including DNA binding activity; MutLalpha complex binding activity; and adenyl ribonucleotide binding activity. Involved in mismatch repair and spermatogenesis. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including Golgi apparatus; chromatin; and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of MutSalpha complex. Used to study hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer type 5. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Lynch syndrome; colorectal carcinoma; endometrial cancer; hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer type 5; and mismatch repair cancer syndrome. Orthologous to human MSH6 (mutS homolog 6). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
