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.

During late mitosis and G1, replication origins are 'licensed' for replication by loading the minichromosome maintenance (MCM) 2-7 proteins pre-replicative complex essential for initiating and elongating replication forks during S phase. The components of the MCM2-7 complex in Homo sapiens (Human) (EBI-913604 from INTACT) are: . DNA replication licensing factor MCM2, P49736 from SWISSPROT, IPR008045 from INTERPRO DNA replication licensing factor MCM3, P25205 from SWISSPROT, IPR008046 from INTERPRO DNA replication licensing factor MCM4, P33991 from SWISSPROT, IPR008047 from INTERPRO DNA replication licensing factor MCM5, P33992 from SWISSPROT, IPR008048 from INTERPRO DNA replication licensing factor MCM6, Q14566 from SWISSPROT, IPR008049 from INTERPRO DNA replication licensing factor MCM7, P33993 from SWISSPROT, IPR008050 from INTERPRO Studies in Xenopus eggs have showed the 6 MCM proteins to form hexamers, where each class is present in equal stoichiometry []. The initiation of DNA synthesis in eukaryotes requires the binding of origin recognition complex (ORC) - a complex of six subunits - to the autonomously replicating sequences (ARS) of replication origins [], the recruitment of CDC6 and binding of the MCM protein complex to the ARS to form the prereplicative complex (pre-RC) []. DNA synthesis is subsequently initiated by the activation of pre-RC by CDC7 and CDC28 protein kinases []. MCM proteins associate with chromatin during G1 phase and dissociate again during S phase, remaining unbound until the end of mitosis []. Periodic chromatin association of the MCM complex ensures that DNA synthesis from replication origins is initiated only once during the cell cycle, avoiding over-replication of parts of the genome. Elongation of replication forks away from individual replication origins results in displacement of the MCM-containing complex from chromatin. Budding yeast MCM proteins are translocated in and out of the nucleus during each cell cycle. However, fission yeast MCMs, like those in metazoans, are constitutively nuclear. The six classes of MCM protein together share a conserved 200 amino acid residue domain, while sequences within the same class show more extensive similarity outside this region. The conserved central domain is similar to the A motif of the Walker-type NTP-binding domain; it also shares similarity with ATPase domains of prokaryotic NtrC-related transcription regulators. The ATP-binding motif is thought to mediate ATP-dependent opening of double-stranded DNA at replication origins. In addition to the central region, MCM2, 4, 6 and 7 contain a zinc-finger-type motif thought to have a role in mediating protein-protein interactions []. Moreover, a conserved alpha-helical structure in the C-terminal region has been noted; this comprises a conserved heptad repeat and a putative four-helix bundle. Most of the MCM proteins contain acidic regions, or alternately repeated clusters of acidic and basic residues. In addition to its role in initiation of DNA replication, MCM2 is able to inhibit the MCM4,6,7 helicase. Studies on murine MCM2 indicate that its C terminus is required for interaction with MCM4, as well as for inhibition of the DNA helicase activity of the MCM4,6,7 complex. The N-terminal region, which contains an H3-binding domain and a region required for nuclear localisation, is required for the phosphorylation by CDC7 kinase. ; GO: 0003677 DNA binding, 0005524 ATP binding, 0006270 DNA-dependent DNA replication initiation, 0005634 nucleus
