OBFC1 Proteins and Enzymes

OBFC1 and C17ORF68 (MIM 613129) are subunits of an alpha accessory factor (AAF) that stimulates the activity of DNApolymerase-alpha-primase (see MIM 176636), the enzyme that initiates DNA replication (Casteel et al., 2009 (PubMed19119139)). OBFC1 also appears to function in a telomere-associated complex with C17ORF68 and TEN1 (C17ORF106; MIM613130) (Miyake et al., 2009 (PubMed 19854130)).(supplied by OMIM)
