The Replication of Polyoma DNA

open access: bronzeJournal of General Virology, 1973
Summary Measurement of replicating molecules of polyoma virus DNA after digestion with endonuclease R1 shows that DNA replication is bidirectional, starting predominantly at a specific site. In both large plaque and small plaque polyoma virus DNA this site is 29 ± 2% of the total length of the DNA from the cleavage site of the endonuclease R1.

MTBP phosphorylation controls DNA replication origin firing

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Faithful genome duplication requires regulation of origin firing to determine loci, timing and efficiency of replisome generation. Established kinase targets for eukaryotic origin firing regulation are the Mcm2-7 helicase, Sld3/Treslin/TICRR and Sld2 ...

The structural basis of Cdc7-Dbf4 kinase dependent targeting and phosphorylation of the MCM2-7 double hexamer

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Here the authors describe multiple structures of the replicative helicase MCM2-7 in complex with Dbf4-dependent kinase (DDK). These structures reveal why the kinase specifically recognizes the MCM2-7 double-hexamer over the single-hexamer and explain how

The Contribution of Lysosomes to DNA Replication

open access: yesCells, 2021
Lysosomes, acidic, membrane-bound organelles, are not only the core of the cellular recycling machinery, but they also serve as signaling hubs regulating various metabolic pathways. Lysosomes maintain energy homeostasis and provide pivotal substrates for

Cryo-EM structures reveal that RFC recognizes both the 3′- and 5′-DNA ends to load PCNA onto gaps for DNA repair

open access: yeseLife, 2022
RFC uses ATP to assemble PCNA onto primed sites for replicative DNA polymerases δ and ε. The RFC pentamer forms a central chamber that binds 3′ ss/ds DNA junctions to load PCNA onto DNA during replication.

Adenovirus DNA Replication [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2013
Adenoviruses have attracted much attention as probes to study biological processes such as DNA replication, transcription, splicing, and cellular transformation. More recently these viruses have been used as gene-transfer vectors and oncolytic agents.

The structure of ORC–Cdc6 on an origin DNA reveals the mechanism of ORC activation by the replication initiator Cdc6

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Eukaryotic DNA replication is mediated by many proteins which are tightly regulated for an efficient firing of replication at each cell cycle. Here the authors report a cryo-EM structure of the yeast ORC–Cdc6 bound to an 85-bp ARS1 origin DNA revealing ...

Unscheduled DNA replication in G1 causes genome instability and damage signatures indicative of replication collisions

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Reusswig et al. use engineered systems to force DNA replication in the G1 phase of the cell cycle. This unscheduled G1 replication shows hallmarks of S phase replication, but leads to over-replication and DNA breaks from replication collisions.

An advanced cell cycle tag toolbox reveals principles underlying temporal control of structure-selective nucleases

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Cell cycle tags allow to restrict target protein expression to specific cell cycle phases. Here, we present an advanced toolbox of cell cycle tag constructs in budding yeast with defined and compatible peak expression that allow comparison of protein ...

Chromatin and DNA Replication [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2013
The size of a eukaryotic genome presents a unique challenge to the cell: package and organize the DNA to fit within the confines of the nucleus while at the same time ensuring sufficient dynamics to allow access to specific sequences and features such as genes and regulatory elements.
