DNA replication origins in archaea
DNA replication initiation, which starts at specific chromosomal site (known as replication origins), is the key regulatory stage of chromosome replication. Archaea, the third domain of life, use a single or multiple origin(s) to initiate replication of their circular chromosomes. The basic structure of replication origins is conserved among archaea, typically including an AT-rich unwinding reg...
متن کاملDNA Replication: Metazoan Sld3 Steps Forward
In yeast, phosphorylation of the Sld3 protein by cyclin-dependent kinases is essential for replication initiation. In metazoans, three potential Sld3 counterparts have emerged. A new study suggests that one of these, Treslin/Ticrr, is the Sld3 ortholog.
متن کاملSnapShot: Origins of DNA Replication
The fundamental unit of DNA replication, the replicon, is governed by a cis-acting replicator sequence and a trans-activating initiator factor. Despite the increased size and complexity of eukaryotic genomes, eukaryotic DNA replication continues to be guided by the fundamental principles and concepts established in the replicon model.
متن کاملConserved DNA structures in origins of replication.
According to the model of Bramhill and Kornberg, initiation of DNA replication in prokaryotes involves binding of an initiator protein to origin DNA and subsequent duplex opening of adjacent direct repeat sequences. In this report, we have used computer analysis to examine the higher-order DNA structure of a variety of origins of replication from plasmids, phages, and bacteria in order to deter...
متن کاملNucleoskeleton and initiation of DNA replication in metazoan cells.
To determine whether or not initiation sites for DNA replication in mammalian cells are defined by association with nuclear structure, attachments between the nucleoskeleton and the hamster DHFR gene initiation zone were examined. Nucleoskeletons were prepared by encapsulating cells in agarose and then extracting them with a nonionic detergent in a physiological buffer. The fraction of DNA that...
