RFC5

replication factor C (activator 1) 5, 36.5kDa

On chromosome: 12q24.23
Known also as: RFC36; MGC1155;


NCBI Gene ID: 5985
NCBI Ensembl Id: ENSG00000111445
MIM Id: (from NCBI OMIM database) 600407
Species: Homo sapiens

The elongation of primed DNA templates by DNA polymerase delta and DNA polymerase epsilon requires the accessory proteins proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and replication factor C (RFC). RFC, also named activator 1, is a protein complex consisting of five distinct subunits of 140, 40, 38, 37, and 36 kD. This gene encodes the 36 kD subunit. This subunit can interact with the C-terminal region of PCNA. It forms a core complex with the 38 and 40 kDa subunits. The core complex possesses DNA-dependent ATPase activity, which was found to be stimulated by PCNA in an in vitro system. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been reported. [provided by RefSeq]
