MCM2-7 COMPLEX -
The heterohexameric MCM2-7 complex is the helicase motor of the CMG (Cdc45-MCM-GINS) replicative helicase of eukaryotes. The six MCM subunits are related to one another and are members of the AAA+ (ATPases associated with diverse cellular activities) superfamily. Hydrolysis of ATP by the individual MCM subunits catalyses the conformational changes that drive unwinding of the DNA duplex. However, the eukaryotic MCM complex alone has no or little helicase activity, requiring the other components of the CMG complex (Cdc45 and the GINS complex) for activation. (Adapted from PMID:23412083.)
CMG COMPLEX -
The CMG (Cdc45-MCM-GINS) complex is the eukaryotic replicative helicase, the enzyme that unwinds double-stranded DNA at replication forks. It is a macromolecular assembly of three replication factors: the Cdc45 protein, and the MCM and GINS complexes. All three components are essential for CMG function, with the MCM2-7 complex functioning as the molecular motor that harnesses the energy of ATP hydrolysis to catalyse strand separation. (Adapted from PMID:23412083.)
Protein Function (UniProtKB)
Acts as component of the Mcm2-7 complex (Mcm complex) which is the putative replicative helicase essential for 'once per cell cycle' DNA replication initiation and elongation in eukaryotic cells. The active ATPase sites in the Mcm2-7 ring are formed through the interaction surfaces of two neighboring subunits such that a critical structure of a conserved arginine finger motif is provided in trans relative to the ATP-binding site of the Walker A box of the adjacent subunit. The six ATPase active sites, however, are likely to contribute differentially to the complex helicase activity. Required for DNA replication and cell proliferation.

Additional Descriptive Data

Mcm2 transcripts are maternally contributed to the embryo and disappear at cellularization. They are expressed uniformly at germ band extension and are subsequently restricted to a pattern that includes continuous expression in the CNS and transient expression in a number of other tissues, including the Malpighian tubules and the gut.

      The Sld5, Psf1, Psf2, Psf3, CDC45L, Mcm2, Mcm3, Mcm5, Mcm6, Mcm7 and dpa proteins form the Cdc45/Mcm2-7/GINS (CMG) complex, a helicase required for the S phase transition in Kc cells.

      (Moyer et al., 2006)

      CycE protein can drive chromosome association of Mcm2 in polytene nuclei and DNA synthesis erases this association.

      (Su and O'Farrell, 1998)

      Physical interactions exist between three MCM proteins, dpa, Mcm2 and Mcm5. The three proteins reside predominantly in stable multi-protein complexes of about 600kD. Coimmunoprecipitation experiments indicate there are at least two distinct 600kD complexes, one of which includes Mcm5 and the other dpa.

      (Su et al., 1996)

      For the yeast genes MCM stands for 'minichromosome maintenance'.

      (Treisman et al., 1995)

      Mcm2 plays a role in the regulation of DNA replication analogous to that of its yeast counterpart (MCM2).
