        The Sld5, Psf1, Psf2, Psf3, CDC45L, Mcm2, Mcm3, Mcm5, Mcm6, Mcm7 and dpa proteins form the Cdc45/Mcm2-7/GINS (CMG) complex, a helicase required for the S phase transition in Kc cells.
        hide Other Comments
        For the yeast genes MCM stands for 'minichromosome maintenance'.
        Physical interactions exist between three MCM proteins, dpa, Mcm2 and Mcm5. The three proteins reside predominantly in stable multi-protein complexes of about 600kD. Coimmunoprecipitation experiments indicate there are at least two distinct 600kD complexes, one of which includes Mcm5 and the other dpa.
        CycE protein can drive chromosome association of Mcm2 in polytene nuclei and DNA synthesis erases this association.
