MeSH definition : Nuclear antigen with a role in DNA synthesis, DNA repair, and cell cycle progression.
PCNA is required for the coordinated synthesis of both leading and lagging strands
at the replication fork during DNA replication. PCNA expression correlates with the
proliferation activity of several malignant and non-malignant cell types.;
