DESCRIPTION

Also known as PSF1_HUMAN, GINS1, KIAA0186, PSF1. Required for correct functioning of the GINS complex, a complex that plays an essential role in the initiation of DNA replication, and progression of DNA replication forks (PubMed:17417653, PubMed:28414293). GINS complex is a core component of CDC45-MCM-GINS (CMG) helicase, the molecular machine that unwinds template DNA during replication, and around which the replisome is built (PubMed:32453425, PubMed:34694004, PubMed:34700328, PubMed:35585232). Component of the GINS complex which is a heterotetramer of GINS1, GINS2, GINS3 and GINS4 (PubMed:17545466, PubMed:17557111, PubMed:17652513, PubMed:28414293). Forms a stable subcomplex with GINS4. GINS complex interacts with DNA primase in vitro (PubMed:17545466, PubMed:17557111, PubMed:17652513, PubMed:28414293). Component of the CMG helicase complex, a hexameric ring of related MCM2-7 subunits stabilized by CDC45 and the tetrameric GINS complex (PubMed:34700328, PubMed:34694004, PubMed:32453425).
