Gene: CDT1
Alternate names for this Gene: DUP|RIS2
Gene 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.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 16
Location in Chromosome : 16q24.3
Description of this Gene: chromatin licensing and DNA replication factor 1
Type of Gene: protein-coding
