DNA-Binding Proteins Regulating pIP501 Transfer and Replication
pIP501 is a Gram-positive broad-host-range model plasmid intensively used for studying plasmid replication and conjugative transfer. It is a multiple antibiotic resistance plasmid frequently detected in clinical Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium strains. Replication of pIP501 proceeds unidirectionally by a theta mechanism. The minimal replicon of pIP501 is composed of the repR gene...
متن کاملDNA REPLICATION AND SYNTHESIS OF DNABINDING PROTEINS IN THE CHLOROPLASTS OF A CALLUS CULTURE
Continuous labelling of callus with H-thymidine results in intermittent peaks of H-DNA per chloroplast, showing synchrony of division. The increase in H-DNA could be due to several replication rounds, and the drop to successive plastid divisions without intervening DNA synthesis. The level of DNA-binding proteins in the chloroplast parallels the peaks of plastidal DNA synthesis; such pro...
متن کاملMCM proteins and DNA replication.
The MCM proteins identify a group of ten conserved factors functioning in the replication of the genomes of archae and eukaryotic organisms. Among these, MCM2-7 proteins are related to each other and form a family of DNA helicases implicated at the initiation step of DNA synthesis. Recently this family expanded by the identification of two additional members that appear to be present only in mu...
متن کاملEucaryotic replication origin binding proteins.
Initiation of eukaryotic DNA replication is a tightly controlled process. Replication initiates at multiple specific sites (replication origins) that have been licensed for replication, following the cell cycle-dependent, multi-step assembly of specific factors. Thus, replication origins occur in two chromatin states: a replication-competent pre-replicative (pre-RC) state, when a number of repl...
متن کاملPolycomb proteins control proliferation and transformation independently of cell cycle checkpoints by regulating DNA replication
The ability of PRC1 and PRC2 to promote proliferation is a main feature that links polycomb (PcG) activity to cancer. PcGs silence the expression of the tumour suppressor locus Ink4a/Arf, whose products positively regulate pRb and p53 functions. Enhanced PcG activity is a frequent feature of human tumours, and PcG inhibition has been proposed as a strategy for cancer treatment. However, the rec...
