The role of Msh2 in chromosome stability has been investigated in a targeted mouse model for HNPCC, Msh2Delta7N. Chromosome aberration frequencies were similar in bone marrow of Msh2(+/+), Msh2(+/-)and Msh2(-/-)mice and no differential effects of in vivo X-irradiation were noted. By contrast, the induction of sister-chromatid exchanges (SCEs) by methyl nitrosourea (MNU) was reduced in Msh2(-/-)and Msh2(+/-)cells to approximately 20% and approximately 45% wild-type levels respectively indicating a phenotypic effect of haploinsufficiency of the mouse Msh2 gene.
在一种针对遗传性非息肉病性结直肠癌(HNPCC)的靶向小鼠模型Msh2Delta7N中,研究了Msh2在染色体稳定性中的作用。Msh2(+/+)、Msh2(+/-)和Msh2(-/-)小鼠骨髓中的染色体畸变频率相似,且未观察到体内X射线照射的差异效应。相比之下,甲基亚硝基脲(MNU)诱导的姐妹染色单体交换(SCE)在Msh2(-/-)和Msh2(+/-)细胞中分别降至约20%和约45%的野生型水平,这表明小鼠Msh2基因单倍剂量不足具有表型效应。
