Replication 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 کاملChoosing replication origins
H. pylori mobilizes cells elicobacter pylori infects the gastric track of more than half of the human population and is associated with an increased occurrence of invasive gastric cancers. On page 249, Churin et al. explain how this widespread bug turns tumors metastatic by corrupting a growth factor receptor. H H. pylori infection mobilizes gastric epithelial cells (right) by activating c-Met....
متن کاملGenetic Variation Meets Replication Origins
Genome replication programs are highly orchestrated. In this issue, Koren and colleagues leverage whole-genome sequencing data to discover that DNA replication timing patterns differ between individuals and are associated with genetic variants. These so-called rtQTLs represent a new form of quantitative trait loci that may influence gene dosage and mutational frequency and provide mechanistic i...
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 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...
