Structural Insights into Eukaryotic DNA Replication [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2014
Three DNA polymerases of the B family function at the replication fork in eukaryotic cells: DNA polymerases α, δ, and ε. DNA polymerase α, an heterotetramer composed of two primase subunits and two polymerase subunits, initiates replication.

Identification of ORC1/CDC6-interacting factors in Trypanosoma brucei reveals critical features of origin recognition complex architecture. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
DNA replication initiates by formation of a pre-replication complex on sequences termed origins. In eukaryotes, the pre-replication complex is composed of the Origin Recognition Complex (ORC), Cdc6 and the MCM replicative helicase in conjunction with ...

Eukaryotic DNA Replication Fork. [PDF]

open access: yesAnnu Rev Biochem, 2017
This review focuses on the biogenesis and composition of the eukaryotic DNA replication fork, with an emphasis on the enzymes that synthesize DNA and repair discontinuities on the lagging strand of the replication fork. Physical and genetic methodologies aimed at understanding these processes are discussed.

Archaeology of eukaryotic DNA replication. [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harb Perspect Biol, 2013
Recent advances in the characterization of the archaeal DNA replication system together with comparative genomic analysis have led to the identification of several previously uncharacterized archaeal proteins involved in replication and currently reveal a nearly complete correspondence between the components of the archaeal and eukaryotic replication ...

Emerging players in the initiation of eukaryotic DNA replication [PDF]

open access: yesCell Division, 2012
Faithful duplication of the genome in eukaryotes requires ordered assembly of a multi-protein complex called the pre-replicative complex (pre-RC) prior to S phase; transition to the pre-initiation complex (pre-IC) at the beginning of DNA replication ...

Mechanistic models of asymmetric hand-over-hand translocation and nucleosome navigation by CMG helicase [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
Faithful replication of eukaryotic chromatin requires the CMG helicase to translocate directionally along single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) while unwinding double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) and navigating nucleosomes.

TRAIP drives replisome disassembly and mitotic DNA repair synthesis at sites of incomplete DNA replication [PDF]

open access: yeseLife, 2019
The faithful segregation of eukaryotic chromosomes in mitosis requires that the genome be duplicated completely prior to anaphase. However, cells with large genomes sometimes fail to complete replication during interphase and instead enter mitosis with ...

Nucleosome-directed replication origin licensing independent of a consensus DNA sequence

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Most eukaryotes do not use a consensus DNA sequence as binding sites for the origin recognition complex (ORC) to initiate DNA replication, however budding yeast do. Here the authors show S. cerevisiae ORC can bind nucleosomes near nucleosome-free regions

Accurate Identification of DNA Replication Origin by Fusing Epigenomics and Chromatin Interaction Information

open access: yesResearch, 2022
DNA replication initiation is a complex process involving various genetic and epigenomic signatures. The correct identification of replication origins (ORIs) could provide important clues for the study of a variety of diseases caused by replication. Here,

The structure of ORC–Cdc6 on an origin DNA reveals the mechanism of ORC activation by the replication initiator Cdc6

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
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 ...
