Summary
Contributes to 3'-5' DNA helicase activity. Involved in chromosome condensation. Part of CMG complex and MCM complex. Is expressed in several structures, including antennal primordium; anterior endoderm; ganglia; mesoderm; and sensory nervous system primordium. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Alzheimer's disease and autosomal dominant nonsyndromic deafness 70. Orthologous to human MCM2 (minichromosome maintenance complex component 2).
