Humanizing the yeast telomerase template.
Saccharomyces cerevisiae contains an irregular telomere sequence (TG1-3)n, which differs from the regular repeat (TTAGGG)n found at the telomeres of higher organisms including humans. We have modified the entire 16-nt template region of the S. cerevisiae telomerase RNA gene (TLC1) to produce (TTAGGG)n repeats, the human telomere sequence. Haploid yeast strains with the tlc1-human allele are via...
متن کاملThe metazoan origin recognition complex.
Regulated initiation of DNA replication relies on the firing of initiator proteins that bind specifically to origin DNA. The discovery of the first eukaryotic initiator, the Saccharomyces cerevisiae Origin Recognition Complex (ORC) has allowed us to discern some aspects of how the onset of replication is regulated. However, understanding the specifics of replication in metazoan organisms can on...
متن کاملThe origin recognition complex interacts with a bipartite DNA binding site within yeast replicators.
Replicators are genetically defined elements within chromosomes that determine the location of origins of DNA replication. In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the ARS1 replicator contains multiple functional DNA elements: an essential A element and three important B elements--B1, B2, and B3. Functionally similar A, B1, and B2 elements are also present in the ARS307 replicator. The B3 element...
متن کاملArchitecture of the human origin recognition complex.
All the human homologs of the six subunits of Saccharomyces cerevisiae origin recognition complex have been reported so far. However, not much has been reported on the nature and the characteristics of the human origin recognition complex. In an attempt to purify recombinant human ORC from insect cells infected with baculoviruses expressing HsORC subunits, we found that human ORC2, -3, -4, and ...
متن کاملMultiple functions of the origin recognition complex.
The origin recognition complex (ORC), a heteromeric six-subunit protein, is a central component for eukaryotic DNA replication. The ORC binds to DNA at replication origin sites in an ATP-dependent manner and serves as a scaffold for the assembly of other key initiation factors. Sequence rules for ORC-DNA binding appear to vary widely. In budding yeast the ORC recognizes specific ori elements, h...
