Product overview
Mismatch Repair (MSH6, PMS2, MLH1, MSH2) Antibody Panel - Human ab252190 contains multiple trial-sized versions of anti-human antibody clones against MSH6, PMS2, MLH1, and MSH2, specifically selected for their high performance in multiple applications including IHC. This panel contains 4 recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibodies that are all knock-out validated to ensure specificity to their targets. They are provided as a sampler panel to allow you to easily evaluate each in your required application.
DNA mismatch repair (MMR) proteins are involved in repairing mistakes that occur during DNA replication and recombination, in addition to repairing some types of DNA damage. Defects in the MMR process due to mutations in MMR genes (MSH6, PMS2, MLH1, MSH2) can result in microsatellite instability (MSI), where a DNA sequence accumulates errors and produces abnormally long or shorter microsatellites. These defects in the MMR pathway have been linked to various human cancers, such as human non-polyposis colon cancer (HNPCC) and Muir-Torre Syndrome (MTS), a subtype of HNPCC.
For guidelines on how to use each antibody within the panel, please consult the individual datasheet for each antibody.
Panel contains:
- Rabbit monoclonal [EPR3894] to MLH1 (20 µL) ab92312

Immunohistochemical staining of paraffin embedded human colon with purified ab92471 at a dilution of 1/500. A pre-diluted HRP polymer for rabbit/mouse IgG was used as the secondary antibody and the sample was counter-stained with hematoxylin. Antigen retrieval was perfomed using Tris-EDTA buffer, pH 9.0. PBS was used instead of the primary antibody as the negative control, and is shown in the inset.

ab92471 staining MSH6 in wild-type HAP1 cells (top panel) and MSH6 knockout HAP1 cells (bottom panel). The cells were fixed with 4% formaldehyde (10min), permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 for 5 minutes and then blocked with 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated with ab92471 at 1μg/ml and ab195889 at 1/250 dilution (shown in pseudocolour red) overnight at +4°C, followed by a further incubation at room temperature for 1h with a goat secondary antibody to Rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488) (ab150081) at 2 μg/ml (shown in green). Nuclear DNA was labelled in blue with DAPI.
Image was taken with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems, TCS SP8).

Lane 2: PMS2 knockout HAP1 whole cell lysate (30 µg)
Lanes 1-2: Merged signal (red and green). Green - Anti-PMS2 antibody [EPR3947] (ab110638) observed at 120 kDa. Red - loading control, ab8245, observed at 37 kDa.ab110638 was shown to specifically react with PMS2 in wild-type HAP1 cells. No band was observed when PMS2 knockout samples were used. Wild-type and PMS2 knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. Ab110638 and ab8245 (Mouse anti GAPDH loading control) were incubated overnight at 4°C at 1/1000 dilution and 1/20000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed ab216773 and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed ab216776 secondary antibodies at 1/20000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.
