Primary Identifier | IPR041562 | Type | Domain |
Short Name | MCM_lid |
description | This entry represents the AAA-lid domain found in MCM proteins.MCM proteins are DNA-dependent ATPases required for the initiation ofeukaryotic DNA replication [, , ]. In eukaryotes there is a family of six proteins, MCM2 to MCM7. They were first identified in yeast where most of them have adirect role in the initiation of chromosomal DNA replication by interacting directly with autonomously replicating sequences (ARS). They were thus called minichromosome maintenance proteins, MCM proteins []. |
