| UniProt Protein Function: | MCM9: Component of the MCM8-MCM9 complex, a complex involved in homologous recombination repair following DNA interstrand cross-links and plays a key role during gametogenesis. The MCM8- MCM9 complex probably acts as a hexameric helicase downstream of the Fanconi anemia proteins BRCA2 and RAD51 and is required to process aberrant forks into homologous recombination substrates and to orchestrate homologous recombination with resection, fork stabilization and fork restart. Belongs to the MCM family. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.Protein type: EC 3.6.4.12Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 6q22.31Cellular Component: nucleusMolecular Function: ATP binding; DNA binding; helicase activityBiological Process: DNA replication; double-strand break repair via homologous recombination; female gamete generation; response to DNA damage stimulusDisease: Ovarian Dysgenesis 4 |
| UniProt Protein Details: | |
| NCBI Summary: | The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the mini-chromosome maintenance (MCM) protein family that are essential for the initiation of eukaryotic genome replication. Binding of this protein to chromatin has been shown to be a pre-requisite for recruiting the MCM2-7 helicase to DNA replication origins. This protein also binds, and is a positive regulator of, the chromatin licensing and DNA replication factor 1, CDT1. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2010] |
