**Background of MutL Recombinant Protein**
MutL is a conserved DNA repair protein central to the mismatch repair (MMR) system, a critical pathway for maintaining genomic stability by correcting replication errors and preventing mutagenesis. In *E. coli*, MutL functions as a homodimer, partnering with MutS and MutH to recognize and repair mismatches or small insertion/deletion loops during DNA replication. MutS first detects mismatches, triggering MutL’s ATPase activity to coordinate downstream repair steps. MutL acts as a molecular scaffold, recruiting endonucleases like MutH to nick the daughter strand, enabling excision and resynthesis of the error-containing DNA segment.
In eukaryotes, MutL homologs (e.g., MLH1. PMS2. MLH3) form heterodimers (e.g., MLH1-PMS2) that are essential for MMR. These proteins also interact with replication machinery and participate in meiotic recombination. Defects in human MutL homologs are linked to hereditary cancers, notably Lynch syndrome, characterized by microsatellite instability due to impaired MMR.
Recombinant MutL proteins are engineered for *in vitro* studies to dissect MMR mechanisms, screen for mutations in cancer diagnostics, or evaluate chemotherapeutic responses. Produced via bacterial or eukaryotic expression systems, recombinant MutL retains functional domains for protein-DNA/protein interactions and ATP hydrolysis. Its applications extend to synthetic biology, where MutL variants are explored to enhance gene-editing tools like CRISPR by improving precision. Research on MutL continues to advance understanding of DNA repair, cancer biology, and antimicrobial strategies targeting bacterial MMR pathways.
