The protein encoded by this gene is part of the replisome complex, a group of proteins that support DNA replication. It binds TIM, which is involved in circadian rhythm regulation, and aids in protecting cells against DNA damage and stress. Two pseudogenes and two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2014].

TIMELESS-interacting protein (TIPIN) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TIPIN gene.

== Structure == TIPIN is a relatively small protein that lacks known enzymatic activity and functions primarily through protein-protein interactions. It forms a stable complex with TIMELESS, a binding interaction that is essential for its role in the replication stress response. Crystallographic and structural studies have confirmed direct interactions between TIPIN, TIMELESS, and other components of the replication machinery.
