Abstract:
A method for treating cancer by using an agent which is capable of inhibiting the functionality of the MCM complex, a heterohexameric ring formed from six subunits, in the process of DNA replication and a method of screening for such agents by detecting the locations and functions of the MCM subunits, such as hMcm2 and hMcm6, in cells treated with candidate compounds.
