Maintenance of genome integrity is a key process in all organisms. DNA polymerases (Pols) are central players in this process as they are in charge of the faithful reproduction of the genetic information, as well as of DNA repair.

Dna2 Helicase/Nuclease Causes Replicative Fork Stalling and Double-strand Breaks in the Ribosomal DNA of Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]
We have proposed that faulty processing of arrested replication forks leads to increases in recombination and chromosome instability in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and contributes to the shortened lifespan of dna2 mutants. Now we use the ribosomal DNA locus,

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.

The dynamics of replication licensing in live Caenorhabditis elegans embryos [PDF]
Accurate DNA replication requires proper regulation of replication licensing, which entails loading MCM-2-7 onto replication origins. In this paper, we provide the first comprehensive view of replication licensing in vivo, using video microscopy of ...

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.

Fork rotation and DNA precatenation are restricted during DNA replication to prevent chromosomal instability [PDF]
Faithful genome duplication and inheritance require the complete resolution of all intertwines within the parental DNA duplex. This is achieved by topoisomerase action ahead of the replication fork or by fork rotation and subsequent resolution of the DNA

Proteomic data on the nuclear interactome of human MCM9
We present data relating to the interactome of MCM9 from the nuclei of human cells. MCM9 belongs to the AAA+ superfamily, and contains an MCM domain and motifs that may confer DNA helicase activity.
