DESCRIPTION

Also known as PSF3_HUMAN, GINS3, PSF3. The GINS complex plays an essential role in the initiation of DNA replication, and progression of DNA replication forks. GINS complex seems to bind preferentially to single-stranded DNA. Component of the GINS complex which is a heterotetramer of GINS1, GINS2, GINS3 and GINS4 (PubMed:17170760, PubMed:17417653, PubMed:17545466, PubMed:17557111, PubMed:17652513, PubMed:28414293). Forms a stable subcomplex with GINS2 (PubMed:17170760, PubMed:17417653, PubMed:17545466, PubMed:17557111, PubMed:17652513, PubMed:28414293). GINS complex interacts with DNA primase in vitro (PubMed:17170760, PubMed:17417653, PubMed:17545466, PubMed:17557111, PubMed:17652513, PubMed:28414293). Component of the CMG helicase complex, composed of the MCM2-7 complex, the GINS complex and CDC45 (By similarity).
