We have systematically measured KD (the equilibrium dissociation constant between the antibody and its antigen), of more than 840 recombinant antibodies to assess not only their individual KD values but also to see the average affinity of antibody. Based on the comparison with published literature values for mouse monoclonal antibodies, Recombinant antibodies appear to be on average 1-2 order of magnitude higher affinity.

Supplementary information

MCM4 or Minichromosome Maintenance Complex Component 4 is a part of the MCM2-7 complex which is essential for the initiation and progression of DNA replication. It has a molecular mass of approximately 95 kDa. MCM4 functions as a DNA helicase unwinding DNA strands to allow replication forks to progress. This protein is expressed in various tissues with higher levels detected in dividing cells indicating its role in cell proliferation.
Biological function summary

MCM4 is a critical player in cell cycle regulation as it participates in the formation of the pre-replicative complex during the G1 phase of the cell cycle. Its function becomes evident as it interacts within the MCM2-7 hexameric complex important for helicase activity and stability. This complex prevents DNA re-replication within a single cell cycle ensuring the maintenance of genomic integrity.

Pathways

Several cellular mechanisms engage MCM4 particularly the DNA replication and cell cycle pathways. MCM4 associates with proteins like CDC45 and GINS within the CMG complex facilitating the activation and elongation phases of DNA replication. This relationship places MCM4 at the heart of orchestrating proper DNA synthesis and mitotic entry.

Researchers have linked MCM4 abnormalities to cancer progression and genomic instability. Overexpression or mutations in MCM4 disrupts normal replication processes heightening the risk for various cancers including breast and ovarian cancer. It also demonstrates interaction with the tumor suppressor protein p53 suggesting its involvement in processes that underpin malignancies linked to failed checkpoint control.

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 : 16899510, PubMed : 25661590, PubMed : 32453425, PubMed : 34694004, PubMed : 34700328, PubMed : 35585232, PubMed : 9305914). 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 : 16899510, PubMed : 25661590, PubMed : 32453425, PubMed : 9305914).
