Molecular Docking for the Development of Alternative Therapies against Leishmaniasis

Chemistry Proceedings, 2023
Topoisomerases play a pivotal role in regulating the topological structure of DNA during fundamental processes such as transcription, DNA repair, or DNA replication; because of this, topoisomerases are biological targets in pathogenic microorganisms or ...

Whole-Exome Sequencing Identifies a Novel POLG Frameshift Variant in an Adult Patient Presenting with Progressive External Ophthalmoplegia and Mitochondrial DNA Depletion

Case Reports in Genetics, 2021
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) depletion syndromes are a group of autosomal recessive disorders associated with a spectrum of clinical diseases, which include progressive external ophthalmoplegia (PEO).

DNA Replication Origins [PDF]

Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2013
The onset of genomic DNA synthesis requires precise interactions of specialized initiator proteins with DNA at sites where the replication machinery can be loaded. These sites, defined as replication origins, are found at a few unique locations in all of the prokaryotic chromosomes examined so far.

The Replication of Polyoma DNA

Journal 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.

Replicative DNA Polymerases [PDF]

Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2013
In 1959, Arthur Kornberg was awarded the Nobel Prize for his work on the principles by which DNA is duplicated by DNA polymerases. Since then, it has been confirmed in all branches of life that replicative DNA polymerases require a single-stranded template to build a complementary strand, but they cannot start a new DNA strand de novo.

MCM2-7 ring closure involves the Mcm5 C-terminus and triggers Mcm4 ATP hydrolysis

Nature Communications
The eukaryotic helicase MCM2-7, is loaded by ORC, Cdc6 and Cdt1 as a double-hexamer onto replication origins. The insertion of DNA into the helicase leads to partial MCM2-7 ring closure, while ATP hydrolysis is essential for consecutive steps in pre ...

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

GEMC1, a novel factor required for chromosomal DNA replication [PDF]

, 2009
In eukaryotic cells DNA replication begins from multiple origins. During the process of initiation, the DNA replication fork is established at each origin. In lower eukaryotes many factors required for chromosomal DNA replication have been identified.

DNA replication licensing in somatic and germ cells [PDF]

, 2004
The DNA replication (or origin) licensing system ensures precise duplication of the genome in each cell cycle and is a powerful regulator of cell proliferation in metazoa.

Reconstitution of human DNA licensing and the structural and functional analysis of key intermediates

Nature Communications
Human DNA licensing initiates replication fork assembly and DNA replication. This reaction promotes the loading of the hMCM2-7 complex on DNA, which represents the core of the replicative helicase that unwinds DNA during S-phase.
