Supplementary information

MCM2 or Minichromosome Maintenance Complex Component 2 is a protein involved in the initiation of DNA replication. It plays a central role in the formation of the pre-replication complex which is necessary for DNA unwinding and replication fork progression. The molecular weight of MCM2 is approximately 100 kDa. It is expressed ubiquitously in proliferating cells as its function is necessary for DNA replication. Researchers often use terms like MCM-2 MC M2 or PMC M2 when discussing varying aspects of its function and interaction with other proteins in scientific literature.
Biological function summary

MCM2 is part of the heterohexameric MCM complex including other proteins like MCM3 to MCM7. This complex serves as a helicase unwinding DNA to allow replication machinery access to the template strand. The activity of the MCM complex is tightly regulated to ensure that every section of genomic DNA is replicated once per cell cycle. Its proper function ensures genetic information replication accuracy and contributes to genome stability.

Pathways

MCM2 participates in essential biological processes such as the DNA replication pathway and the cell cycle regulatory pathway. The presence of MCM2 is critical for the G1/S transition phase of the cell cycle. It interacts with other proteins including CDC45 and GINS forming the active CMG helicase complex. This complex is pivotal in orchestrating the replication machinery and signaling pathway responses to ensure appropriate replication origin firing and accurate DNA synthesis.

MCM2 is often associated with cancer and some types of genomic instability disorders. Its overexpression can lead to uncontrolled cell proliferation a hallmark of cancer. MCM2 expression levels can be a marker in distinguishing certain tumors acting as a potential therapeutic target. The protein's interaction with components like cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) can influence pathways leading to malignant transformation and suggests its involvement in tumorigenesis and potential as a target for anticuerpos or antibodies in disease treatment.

Target data

Acts as a component of the MCM2-7 complex (MCM complex) which is the replicative helicase essential for 'once per cell cycle' DNA replication initiation and elongation in eukaryotic cells. Core component of CDC45-MCM-GINS (CMG) helicase, the molecular machine that unwinds template DNA during replication, and around which the replisome is built (PubMed : 32453425, PubMed : 34694004, PubMed : 34700328, PubMed : 35585232). The active ATPase sites in the MCM2-7 ring are formed through the interaction surfaces of two neighboring subunits such that a critical structure of a conserved arginine finger motif is provided in trans relative to the ATP-binding site of the Walker A box of the adjacent subunit. The six ATPase active sites, however, are likely to contribute differentially to the complex helicase activity (PubMed : 32453425). Required for the entry in S phase and for cell division (PubMed : 8175912). Plays a role in terminally differentiated hair cells development of the cochlea and induces cells apoptosis (PubMed : 26196677).
