[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/GEMI_HUMAN GEMI_HUMAN] Inhibits DNA replication by preventing the incorporation of MCM complex into pre-replication complex (pre-RC). It is degraded during the mitotic phase of the cell cycle. Its destruction at the metaphase-anaphase transition permits replication in the succeeding cell cycle.<ref>PMID:9635433</ref> <ref>PMID:14993212</ref> <ref>PMID:22615398</ref>   Inhibits the transcriptional activity of a subset of Hox proteins, enrolling them in cell proliferative control.<ref>PMID:9635433</ref> <ref>PMID:14993212</ref> <ref>PMID:22615398</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Geminin is an important regulator of proliferation and differentiation in metazoans, which predominantly inhibits the DNA replication licensing factor Cdt1, preventing genome over-replication. We show that Geminin preferentially forms stable coiled-coil heterodimers with its homologue, Idas. In contrast to Idas:Geminin heterodimers, Idas homodimers are thermodynamically unstable and are unlikely to exist as a stable macromolecule under physiological conditions. The crystal structure of the homology regions of Idas in complex with Geminin showed a tight head-to-head heterodimeric coiled-coil. This Idas:Geminin heterodimer binds Cdt1 less strongly than Geminin:Geminin, still with high affinity (~30nM), but with notably different thermodynamic properties. Consistently, in Xenopus egg extracts, Idas:Geminin is less active in licensing inhibition compared to a Geminin:Geminin homodimer. In human cultured cells, ectopic expression of Idas leads to limited over-replication, which is counteracted by Geminin co-expression. The properties of the Idas:Geminin complex suggest it as the functional form of Idas, and provide a possible mechanism to modulate Geminin activity.

The Geminin and Idas coiled coils preferentially form a heterodimer that inhibits Geminin function in DNA replication licensing.,Caillat C, Pefani ED, Gillespie PJ, Taraviras S, Blow JJ, Lygerou Z, Perrakis A J Biol Chem. 2013 Oct 2. PMID:24064211<ref>PMID:24064211</ref>
