MCM proteins as diagnostic and prognostic tumor markers in the clinical setting.
1 Mar 2010
Abstract excerpt
Minichromosome maintenance (MCM) proteins are essential for the process of DNA replication, functioning as license components for the S-phase of cell-cycle initiation and further exerting weak helicase activity to unwind DNA from its supercoiled state at replication forks. The requirement for MCM proteins in cycling cells and their absence in quiescent ones supports evidence for their potential clinical...
