Concurrent replication and methylation at mammalian origins of replication.
Observations made with Escherichia coli have suggested that a lag between replication and methylation regulates initiation of replication. To address the question of whether a similar mechanism operates in mammalian cells, we have determined the temporal relationship between initiation of replication and methylation in mammalian cells both at a comprehensive level and at specific sites. First, ...
متن کاملDNA Replication Origins and Fork Progression at Mammalian Telomeres
Telomeres are essential chromosomal regions that prevent critical shortening of linear chromosomes and genomic instability in eukaryotic cells. The bulk of telomeric DNA is replicated by semi-conservative DNA replication in the same way as the rest of the genome. However, recent findings revealed that replication of telomeric repeats is a potential cause of chromosomal instability, because DNA ...
متن کاملReplication control: Choreographing replication origins
Budding yeast replication origins are activated during S phase according to a predetermined temporal programme. Two recent studies indicate that this programme is executed, at least in part, by the S-phase-promoting cyclins that act to assemble a pre-initiation complex which includes the Cdc45 protein.
متن کاملHelicase loading at chromosomal origins of replication.
Loading of the replicative DNA helicase at origins of replication is of central importance in DNA replication. As the first of the replication fork proteins assemble at chromosomal origins of replication, the loaded helicase is required for the recruitment of the rest of the replication machinery. In this work, we review the current knowledge of helicase loading at Escherichia coli and eukaryot...
متن کاملReplication origins of mammalian chromosomes: the happy few.
Replication of eukaryotic cell genomes is a tightly controlled process occurring once and only once per cell cycle. Replication initiates at several thousand origins, whose cis-acting sequences and trans-acting proteins have been partially characterized in the yeast S. cerevisiae in the last few years. In contrast, identification of origins of DNA replication in mammalian cells have proven much...
