Mcm1 Binds Replication Origins [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2003 Mcm1 is an essential protein required for the efficient replication of minichromosomes and the transcriptional regulation of early cell cycle genes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In this study, we report that Mcm1 is an abundant protein that associates globally with chromatin in a punctate pattern.

A back-up mechanism for replication
eLifeA protein called PriC allows DNA replication to proceed in Escherichia coli when the complex that usually initiates this process is compromised.

Organoids in pediatric cancer research
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

H3 K36 Methylation Helps Determine the Timing of Cdc45 Association with Replication Origins
, 2009 BackgroundReplication origins fire at different times during S-phase. Such timing is determined by the chromosomal context, which includes the activity of nearby genes, telomeric position effects and chromatin structure, such as the acetylation state of ...

The enhancement of M13 phage titration by optimizing the origin of replication
Research in Pharmaceutical SciencesBackground and purpose: M13KO7, a modified M13 phage variant, carries the p15A replication origin and Tn903 kanamycin resistance gene. This study aimed to optimize M13KO7's replication by substituting the p15A origin with the higher-copy pMB1 origin (500-

Chromosome I controls chromosome II replication in Vibrio cholerae.
PLoS Genetics, 2014 Control of chromosome replication involves a common set of regulators in eukaryotes, whereas bacteria with divided genomes use chromosome-specific regulators. How bacterial chromosomes might communicate for replication is not known.

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...
