CDT1 chromatin licensing and DNA replication factor 1 [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 81620)
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 81620)
Symbol: CDT1
Full name: chromatin licensing and DNA replication factor 1
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Also known as: DUP; RIS2
Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is involved in the formation of the pre-replication complex that is necessary for DNA replication. The encoded protein can bind geminin, which prevents replication and may function to prevent this protein from initiating replication at inappropriate origins. Phosphorylation of this protein by cyclin A-dependent kinases results in degradation of the protein. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2011]
