DESCRIPTION

Also known as MCMBP_HUMAN, MCMBP, C10orf119. Associated component of the MCM complex that acts as a regulator of DNA replication. Binds to the MCM complex during late S phase and promotes the disassembly of the MCM complex from chromatin, thereby acting as a key regulator of pre-replication complex (pre-RC) unloading from replicated DNA. Can dissociate the MCM complex without addition of ATP; probably acts by destabilizing interactions of each individual subunits of the MCM complex. Required for sister chromatid cohesion. Interacts with the MCM complex: associates with the MCM3-7 complex which lacks MCM2, while it does not interact with the MCM complex when MCM2 is present (MCM2-7 complex). Interacts with the RPA complex, when composed of all RPA1, RPA2 and RPA3 components, but not with RPA1 or RPA2 alone.
