Important Note | This product as supplied is intended for research use only, not for use in human, therapeutic or diagnostic applications. |
Background Descriptions | DBF4B is a regulatory subunit for CDC7, a serine-threonine kinase which links cell cycle regulation to genome duplication. The complex CDC7-DBF4B selectively phosphorylates the MCM2 subunit at 'Ser-40' and then is involved in regulating the initiation of DNA replication during cell cycle. DBF4B localizes to the nucleus and its expression is cell cycle-regulated. |

Function | Regulatory subunit for CDC7 which activates its kinase activity thereby playing a central role in DNA replication and cell proliferation. Required for progression of S and M phases. The complex CDC7-DBF4B selectively phosphorylates MCM2 subunit at 'Ser-40' and then is involved in regulating the initiation of DNA replication during cell cycle. |
Cellular Location | Nucleus. Note=Predominantly found in soluble fraction but not in the chromatin-bound fraction |
Tissue Location | Widely expressed. Highly expressed in testis. |
