Target Synonym: DNA replication licensing factor MCM5;MCM5;CDC46
Target Species: Human
Expression Host: E.coli
Fusion Tag: N-His & C-His
UNIProt ID: P33992
Background: MCM5 (Mini Chromosome Maintainance protein-5) is involved in the control of DNA replication. MCM proteins have DNA dependent ATPase motifs in their central domain which is conserved from yeast to mammals. MCM proteins form a complex which exhibits ATPase and helicase activities. In G0 phase levels of MCM 2 and 5 are lower than that of MCM7 and 3 but increase as the cell enters G1/S phase of the cell cycle. It has been reported that immunocytochemical assessment of Mcm5 expression may be of value in improving the accuracy of cervical smear testing for the detection of malignancy.
Sequence: Met 1-Asp 200
Purity: > 95 % as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.
Formulation: Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4. Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween80 are added as protectants before lyophilization. Please refer to the specific buffer information in the printed manual.
