A Dynamic Stochastic Model for DNA Replication Initiation in Early Embryos [PDF]
Background: Eukaryotic cells seem unable to monitor replication completion during normal S phase, yet must ensure a reliable replication completion time.

Structure and Function of the Campylobacter jejuni Chromosome Replication Origin
Campylobacter jejuni is the leading bacterial cause of foodborne infections worldwide. However, our understanding of its cell cycle is poor. We identified the probable C.

Background Generally, bacteria have a circular genome with a single replication origin for each replicon, whereas archaea and eukaryotes can have multiple replication origins in a single chromosome.

Chromosomal macrodomains and associated proteins : implications for DNA organization and replication in gram negative bacteria [PDF]
The Escherichia coli chromosome is organized into four macrodomains, the function and organisation of which are poorly understood. In this review we focus on the MatP, SeqA, and SlmA proteins that have recently been identified as the first examples of ...

Functional centromeres determine the activation time of pericentric origins of DNA replication in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. [PDF]
The centromeric regions of all Saccharomyces cerevisiae chromosomes are found in early replicating domains, a property conserved among centromeres in fungi and some higher eukaryotes. Surprisingly, little is known about the biological significance or the

Replication factory activation can be decoupled from the replication timing program by modulating Cdk levels [PDF]
In the metazoan replication timing program, clusters of replication origins located in different subchromosomal domains fire at different times during S phase. We have used Xenopus laevis egg extracts to drive an accelerated replication timing program in

Where and When Bacterial Chromosome Replication Starts: A Single Cell Perspective
Bacterial chromosomes have a single, unique replication origin (named oriC), from which DNA synthesis starts. This study describes methods of visualizing oriC regions and the chromosome replication in single living bacterial cells in real-time.

Prokaryotic ParA–ParB–parS system links bacterial chromosome segregation with the cell cycle [PDF]
While the essential role of episomal par loci in plasmid DNA partitioning has long been appreciated, the function of chromosomally encoded par loci is less clear. The chromosomal parA–parB genes are conserved throughout the bacterial kingdom and encode

Genetic and physical mapping of DNA replication origins in Haloferax volcanii. [PDF]
The halophilic archaeon Haloferax volcanii has a multireplicon genome, consisting of a main chromosome, three secondary chromosomes, and a plasmid. Genes for the initiator protein Cdc6/Orc1, which are commonly located adjacent to archaeal origins of DNA ...
