STN1 STN1 subunit of CST complex

Gene ID: 79991, updated on 19-Sep-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: AAF44; OBFC1; AAF-44; RPA-32; bA541N10.2

Summary

OBFC1 and C17ORF68 (MIM 613129) are subunits of an alpha accessory factor (AAF) that stimulates the activity of DNA polymerase-alpha-primase (see MIM 176636), the enzyme that initiates DNA replication (Casteel et al., 2009 [PubMed 19119139]). OBFC1 also appears to function in a telomere-associated complex with C17ORF68 and TEN1 (C17ORF106; MIM 613130) (Miyake et al., 2009 [PubMed 19854130]).[supplied by OMIM, Nov 2009]
