Background: MCM2

CM2 (Minichromosome maintenance protein 2; also BM28) is a member of the MCM family of proteins. Although its predicted MW is 102 kDa, it runs anomalously at 125 kDa in SDS‑PAGE. MCM2 forms a large, 450‑600 kDa prereplication complex with MCM3 through 7 plus HBO1, and associates with the ORC to initiate DNA synthesis. Human MCM2 is 904 amino acids (aa) in length (Accession # P49736). It contains one C4‑type zinc finger region (aa 329‑355) and a P‑loop NTPase region (aa 485‑659) and at least 12 Ser/Thr phosphorylation sites in the N‑terminal one‑third of the molecule. MCM2 has several potential isoforms. There is an alternate start site at Met10 with or without a 47 aa substitution for aa 109‑157, a deletion of aa 31‑126, a Gly substitution for aa 113‑132 coupled with a 69 aa insertion after Lys476, and a seven aa substitution for aa 1‑137. Over aa 143‑296, human MCM2 shares 99% aa identity with mouse MCM2.
