DNA replication licensing factor MCM2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MCM2 gene.{{cite journal | vauthors = Todorov IT, Lavigne J, Sakr F, Kaneva R, Foisy S, Bibor-Hardy V | title = Nuclear matrix protein mitotin messenger RNA is expressed at constant levels during the cell cycle | journal = Biochem Biophys Res Commun | volume = 177 | issue = 1 | pages = 395–400 | date = Jul 1991 | pmid = 1710453 | doi = 10.1016/0006-291X(91)91996-P }}{{cite journal | vauthors = Mincheva A, Todorov I, Werner D, Fink TM, Lichter P | title = The human gene for nuclear protein BM28 (CDCL1), a new member of the early S-phase family of proteins, maps to chromosome band 3q21 | journal = Cytogenet Cell Genet | volume = 65 | issue = 4 | pages = 276–7 | date = Jan 1994 | pmid = 8258304 | doi = 10.1159/000133647 }}

Function

The protein encoded by this gene is one of the highly conserved mini-chromosome maintenance proteins (MCM) that are involved in the initiation of eukaryotic genome replication. The hexameric protein complex formed by MCM proteins is a key component of the pre-replication complex (pre-RC) and may be involved in the formation of replication forks and in the recruitment of other DNA replication-related proteins. This protein forms a complex with MCM4, 6, and 7, and has been shown to regulate the helicase activity of the complex. This protein is phosphorylated, and thus regulated by, protein kinases CDC2 and CDC7.{{cite web | title = Entrez Gene: MCM2 MCM2 minichromosome maintenance deficient 2, mitotin (S. cerevisiae)| url = https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=4171}}
