Background
This locus is frequently mutated in hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer (HNPCC). When
cloned, it was discovered to be a human homolog of the E. coli mismatch repair gene mutS,
consistent with the characteristic alterations in microsatellite sequences (RER+ phenotype)
found in HNPCC. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this
gene.
