Gene Information

human ... MCM3(4172)

General description

Minichromosome maintenance complex component 3 (MCM3) is encoded by the gene mapped to human chromosome 6p12.2-p12.1. The encoded protein is a member of MCM protein family.
The protein encoded by this gene is one of the highly conserved mini-chromosome maintenance proteins (MCM) that are involved in the initiation of eukaryotic genome replication. The hexameric protein complex formed by MCM proteins is a key component of the pre-replication complex (pre_RC) and may be involved in the formation of replication forks and in the recruitment of other DNA replication related proteins. This protein is a subunit of the protein complex that consists of MCM2-7. It has been shown to interact directly with MCM5/CDC46. This protein also interacts with, and thus is acetlyated by MCM3AP, a chromatin-associated acetyltransferase. The acetylation of this protein inhibits the initiation of DNA replication and cell cycle progression. (provided by RefSeq)

Biochem/physiol Actions

Minichromosome maintenance complex component 3 (MCM3) is a mini-chromosome maintenance protein in eukaryotic genome replication. MCM proteins are key components of the pre-replication complex, recruit replication-related proteins and form replication forks. The PS1 putative hairpin of MCM3 is specifically required for DNA unwinding and viability. MCM3 is a marker for tumorigenesis in several human cancers. Aberration in the expression of MCM3 is associated with the development of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC).
