APC/C – the master controller of origin licensing? [PDF]
DNA replication must be tightly controlled to prevent initiation of a second round of replication until mitosis is complete. So far, components of the pre-replicative complex (Cdt1, Cdc6 and geminin) were considered key players in this regulation.

MCM2-7 loading-dependent ORC release ensures genome-wide origin licensing [PDF]
Origin recognition complex (ORC)-dependent loading of the replicative helicase MCM2-7 onto replication origins in G1-phase forms the basis of replication fork establishment in S-phase.

The Origin Recognition Complex: From Origin Selection to Replication Licensing in Yeast and Humans
Understanding human DNA replication through the study of yeast has been an extremely fruitful journey. The minichromosome maintenance (MCM) 2–7 genes that encode the catalytic core of the eukaryotic replisome were initially identified through forward ...

Deficiency in origin licensing proteins impairs cilia formation: implications for the aetiology of Meier-Gorlin syndrome. [PDF]
Mutations in ORC1, ORC4, ORC6, CDT1, and CDC6, which encode proteins required for DNA replication origin licensing, cause Meier-Gorlin syndrome (MGS), a disorder conferring microcephaly, primordial dwarfism, underdeveloped ears, and skeletal ...

Unidirectional MCM translocation away from ORC drives origin licensing [PDF]
The MCM motor of the eukaryotic replicative helicase is loaded as a double hexamer onto DNA by the Origin Recognition Complex (ORC), Cdc6, and Cdt1. ATP binding supports formation of the ORC-Cdc6-Cdt1-MCM (OCCM) helicase-recruitment complex where ORC ...

Multiple kinases inhibit origin licensing and helicase activation to ensure reductive cell division during meiosis [PDF]
Meiotic cells undergo a single round of DNA replication followed by two rounds of chromosome segregation (the meiotic divisions) to produce haploid gametes.
