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 ...

Summary: Rad24-RFC (replication factor C) loads the 9-1-1 checkpoint clamp onto the recessed 5′ ends by binding a 5′ DNA at an external surface site and threading the 3′ single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) into 9-1-1. We find here that Rad24-RFC loads 9-1-1 onto

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 ...

Mechanisms of DNA replication [PDF]
Advances in recent years have led to exciting new ideas about the initiation, regulation and coordination of DNA replication. Structural studies have yielded fascinating glimpses of replisome action. In addition, the involvement of replication proteins in other cellular processes has blurred the lines between replication, repair and recombination.

Molecular choreography of primer synthesis by the eukaryotic Pol α-primase
The eukaryotic polymerase α (Pol α) synthesizes an RNA-DNA hybrid primer of 20–30 nucleotides. Pol α is composed of Pol1, Pol12, Primase 1 (Pri1), and Pri2. Pol1 and Pri1 contain the DNA polymerase and RNA primase activities, respectively.

DNA Replication Fidelity [PDF]
▪ Abstract DNA replication fidelity is a key determinant of genome stability and is central to the evolution of species and to the origins of human diseases. Here we review our current understanding of replication fidelity, with emphasis on structural and biochemical studies of DNA polymerases that provide new insights into the importance of hydrogen

Flap endonuclease 1 (FEN1) is an important component of the intricate molecular machinery for DNA replication and repair. FEN1 is a structure-specific 5′ nuclease that cleaves nascent single-stranded 5′ flaps during the maturation of Okazaki fragments ...

Reversal of terminal differentiation and control of DNA replication [PDF]
DNA replication in mammalian cells occurs in discrete nuclear foci. Here we show that terminally differentiated myotubes can be induced to reenter S phase and show the same pattern of replication foci as cycling cells.
