DNA copy-number control through inhibition of replication fork progression.
Proper control of DNA replication is essential to ensure faithful transmission of genetic material and prevent chromosomal aberrations that can drive cancer progression and developmental disorders. DNA replication is regulated primarily at the level of initiation and is under strict cell-cycle regulation. Importantly, DNA replication is highly influenced by developmental cues. In Drosophila, sp...
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 کاملNegative control of plasmid R6K replication: possible role of intermolecular coupling of replication origins.
The gamma origin binding sites of the replication initiator pi protein, composed of seven 22-base-pair (bp) direct repeats and previously shown to be essential for replication of plasmid R6K, can also act as an inhibitor of R6K replication in Escherichia coli cells if provided in trans. Inhibition is dependent upon the ability of these repeats to bind the R6K-encoded pi protein but is not overc...
متن کاملMultiple homeostatic mechanisms in the control of P1 plasmid replication.
Many organisms control initiation of DNA replication by limiting supply or activity of initiator proteins. In plasmids, such as P1, initiators are limited primarily by transcription and dimerization. However, the relevance of initiator limitation to plasmid copy number control has appeared doubtful, because initiator oversupply increases the copy number only marginally. Copy number control inst...
