The High-Affinity Interaction between ORC and DNA that Is Required for Replication Licensing Is Inhibited by 2-Arylquinolin-4-Amines [PDF]
In late mitosis and G1, origins of DNA replication must be "licensed" for use in the upcoming S phase by being encircled by double hexamers of the minichromosome maintenance proteins MCM2-7.

Circadian disruption has multiple pathological consequences, but the underlying mechanisms are largely unknown. To address such mechanisms, we subjected transformed cultured cells to chronic circadian desynchrony (CCD), mimicking a chronic jet-lag scheme,

Role of the ubiquitin-selective CDC-48/UFD-1/NPL-4 chaperone in DNA replication [PDF]
Faithful transmission of genomic information requires tight spatiotemporal regulation of DNA replication factors. Posttranslational modifications, such as ubiquitylation, constitute a fast and effective mechanism to control such complex protein function.

This article highlights the fibrous morphology of multiwalled carbon nanotubes as a key factor in their genotoxicity. Fibers physically interfere in cell division, generating binucleated cells and micronuclei, both of which are precursors of carcinogenesis.

The epigenetic control of E-box and Myc-dependent chromatin modifications regulate the licensing of lamin B2 origin during cell cycle [PDF]
Recent genome-wide mapping of the mammalian replication origins has suggested the role of transcriptional regulatory elements in origin activation. However, the nature of chromatin modifications associated with such trans-factors or epigenetic marks ...

A Reporter Platform to Study Therapy‐Induced Senescence in Live Cancer Cells
This study describes the development and applications of a transgenic lamin‐based senescence reporter platform based on changes in lamin‐B1‐ and lamin‐A intensities during senescence‐induction. The reporter platform is a versatile tool, allowing to screen for and sort senescent cancer cells, allowing marker integration (for example incorporating IL6 ...

A conserved MCM single-stranded DNA binding element is essential for replication initiation [PDF]
The ring-shaped MCM helicase is essential to all phases of DNA replication. The complex loads at replication origins as an inactive double-hexamer encircling duplex DNA.

The GGH/HuR Complex Binds and Stabilizes mRNAs to Maintain Tumor Cell Cycle and DNA Replication
Despite its canonical role in inhibiting DNA synthesis, GGH promotes tumor growth as a novel RNA‐binding protein. GGH binds GC‐rich 5′UTRs (e.g., CDC6/CCND1), recruits HuR to form a ternary complex that stabilizes mRNA via circular conformation, fueling DNA replication and the cell cycle. Targeting this axis suppresses NSCLC progression.

Mining Alzheimer's Interactomes, Macromolecular Complexes and Pathways for Drug Discovery
ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that leads to dementia. Many cases are diagnosed annually and there is no currently available cure. Understanding the underlying disease biology of AD through the study of molecular networks, particularly by mapping clinical variants to tissue‐specific interactomes and ...

Role of WDHD1 in Human Papillomavirus-Mediated Oncogenesis Identified by Transcriptional profiling of E7-expressing cells [PDF]
The E7 oncoprotein of the high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) plays a major role in HPV-induced carcinogenesis. E7 abrogates the G(1) cell cycle checkpoint and induces genomic instability, but the mechanism is not fully understood.
