Cancer cells generally showed weak to moderate nuclear positivity. A few gliomas and testicular cancers showed strong nuclear positivity.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
PMS2 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
HNPCC4, H_DJ0042M02.9, MLH4, PMSL2
Description
PMS1 homolog 2, mismatch repair system component (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene is one of the PMS2 gene family members found in clusters on chromosome 7. The product of this gene is involved in DNA mismatch repair. It forms a heterodimer with MLH1 and this complex interacts with other complexes bound to mismatched bases. Mutations in this gene are associated with hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer, Turcot syndrome, and are a cause of supratentorial primitive neuroectodermal tumors. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
