Abstract excerpt
Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) has several roles in progression through S phase: it is required for the function of DNA polymerases delta and epsilon and physically associates with the structure-specific nuclease FEN-1 that is essential for Okazaki fragment processing. The cyclindependent kinase inhibitor p21 appears to displace FEN-1 from PCNA to inhibit DNA replication and possibly permit...
