Mcm8 - minichromosome maintenance 8 homologous recombination repair factor

Predicted to enable several functions, including chromatin binding activity; mismatch repair complex binding activity; and single-stranded DNA binding activity. Predicted to contribute to single-stranded DNA helicase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including gamete generation; protein stabilization; and recombinational repair. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of MCM8-MCM9 complex. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in primary ovarian insufficiency 10. Orthologous to human MCM8 (minichromosome maintenance 8 homologous recombination repair factor).
