DnaA and ORC: more than DNA replication initiators [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Cell Biology, 2011
Mutations in DNA replication initiator genes in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes lead to a pleiotropic array of phenotypes, including defects in chromosome segregation, cytokinesis, cell cycle regulation and gene expression. For years, it was not clear whether these diverse effects were indirect consequences of perturbed DNA replication, or whether they

In-vitro helix opening of M. tuberculosis oriC by DnaA occurs at precise location and is inhibited by IciA like protein. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
BACKGROUND: Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb), the pathogen that causes tuberculosis, is capable of staying asymptomatically in a latent form, persisting for years in very low replicating state, before getting reactivated to cause active infection. It is

Cooperative DnaA Binding to the Negatively Supercoiled datA Locus Stimulates DnaA-ATP Hydrolysis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2017
Timely initiation of replication in Escherichia coli requires functional regulation of the replication initiator, ATP-DnaA. The cellular level of ATP-DnaA increases just before initiation, after which its level decreases through hydrolysis of DnaA-bound ATP, yielding initiation-inactive ADP-DnaA.

Escherichia coli DnaA Protein Loads a Single DnaB Helicase at a DnaA Box Hairpin [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2002
The molecular engine that drives bidirectional replication fork movement from the Escherichia coli replication origin (oriC) is the replicative helicase, DnaB. At oriC, two and only two helicase molecules are loaded, one for each replication fork. DnaA participates in helicase loading; DnaC is also involved, because it must be in a complex with DnaB ...

Association of the chromosome replication initiator DnaA with the Escherichia coli inner membrane in vivo: quantity and mode of binding.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
DnaA initiates chromosome replication in most known bacteria and its activity is controlled so that this event occurs only once every cell division cycle.

The bacterial replication origin BUS promotes nucleobase capture

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Genome duplication is essential for the proliferation of cellular life and this process is generally initiated by dedicated replication proteins at chromosome origins.

Low Affinity DnaA-ATP Recognition Sites in E. coli oriC Make Non-equivalent and Growth Rate-Dependent Contributions to the Regulated Timing of Chromosome Replication

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Although the mechanisms that precisely time initiation of chromosome replication in bacteria remain unclear, most clock models are based on accumulation of the active initiator protein, DnaA-ATP.

Blocking, Bending, and Binding: Regulation of Initiation of Chromosome Replication During the Escherichia coli Cell Cycle by Transcriptional Modulators That Interact With Origin DNA

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Genome duplication is a critical event in the reproduction cycle of every cell. Because all daughter cells must inherit a complete genome, chromosome replication is tightly regulated, with multiple mechanisms focused on controlling when chromosome ...

Genes controlled by DnaA

open access: yes, 2019
DnaA is the widely conserved bacterial AAA+ ATPase that functions as both the replication initiator and a transcription factor. In many organisms, DnaA controls expression of its own gene and likely several others during growth and in response to ...
