High impact information on Mcm2

  • These results suggest that DmMCM2 plays a role in the regulation of DNA replication analogous to that of its yeast counterpart [1].
  • DmMCM2 is expressed in the embryo in a pattern corresponding to that of S-phase cells [1].
  • We demonstrate that cyclin E can drive chromosome association of DmMCM2 and that DNA synthesis erases this association [2].
