Yeast ORC sumoylation status fine-tunes origin licensing. [PDF]
Sumoylation is emerging as a posttranslation modification important for regulating chromosome duplication and stability. The origin recognition complex (ORC) that directs DNA replication initiation by loading the MCM replicative helicase onto origins is sumoylated in both yeast and human cells.

The consequences of differential origin licensing dynamics in distinct chromatin environments. [PDF]
Abstract Eukaryotic chromosomes contain regions of varying accessibility, yet DNA replication factors must access all regions. The first replication step is loading MCM complexes to license replication origins during the G1 cell cycle phase.

DNA replication origins retain mobile licensing proteins [PDF]
AbstractDNA replication in eukaryotes initiates at many origins distributed across each chromosome. Origins are bound by the origin recognition complex (ORC), which, with Cdc6 and Cdt1, recruits and loads the Mcm2-7 (MCM) helicase as an inactive double hexamer during G1 phase. The replisome assembles at the activated helicase in S phase.

The Origin of the “MIT License” [PDF]
Discusses the origin and history of the “MIT License.” This license has become a popular way of releasing copyrighted computer programs for others to use without requiring signatures or a license fee. The quoted words refer to a group of software licenses that have common ancestry and guiding principles but varying wordings.

License to Replicate: Mechanisms of Licensing Eukaryotic Origins for DNA Replication. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Accurate and timely genome replication is a universal feature of living organisms and a prerequisite for cell proliferation. In eukaryotes, genomic DNA replication initiates in two steps, origin licensing and origin firing, reflecting the loading and activation of the MCM replicative helicase motor on origin DNA.

Defects in the origin licensing checkpoint stresses cells exiting G0. [PDF]
The full licensing of replication origins in late G1 is normally enforced by the licensing checkpoint. In this issue, Matson et al. (2019. J. Cell Biol. https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.201902143) show that this checkpoint is inoperative in cells exiting from G0, resulting in incomplete origin licensing and consequent replicative stress.

Quantitative profiling of adaptation to cyclin E overproduction
Detailed analysis of individual human cells responding then adapting to the stress of chronic cyclin E overproduction, which inhibits DNA replication origin licensing by inducing premature S phase. Cyclin E/CDK2 drives cell cycle progression from G1 to S

ATPase-dependent quality control of DNA replication origin licensing. [PDF]
The regulated loading of the Mcm2-7 DNA helicase (comprising six related subunits, Mcm2 to Mcm7) into pre-replicative complexes at multiple replication origins ensures precise once per cell cycle replication in eukaryotic cells. The origin recognition complex (ORC), Cdc6 and Cdt1 load Mcm2-7 into a double hexamer bound around duplex DNA in an ATP ...
