T7 replisome directly overcomes DNA damage [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2015
AbstractCells and viruses possess several known ‘restart’ pathways to overcome lesions during DNA replication. However, these ‘bypass’ pathways leave a gap in replicated DNA or require recruitment of accessory proteins, resulting in significant delays to fork movement or even cell division arrest.

The Replisomes Remain Spatially Proximal throughout the Cell Cycle in Bacteria. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2017
The positioning of the DNA replication machinery (replisome) has been the subject of several studies. Two conflicting models for replisome localization have been proposed: In the Factory Model, sister replisomes remain spatially co-localized as the ...

Single-Molecule Insights Into the Dynamics of Replicative Helicases

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021
Helicases are molecular motors that translocate along single-stranded DNA and unwind duplex DNA. They rely on the consumption of chemical energy from nucleotide hydrolysis to drive their translocation.

Coordinated DNA Replication by the Bacteriophage T4 Replisome

open access: yesViruses, 2015
The T4 bacteriophage encodes eight proteins, which are sufficient to carry out coordinated leading and lagging strand DNA synthesis. These purified proteins have been used to reconstitute DNA synthesis in vitro and are a well-characterized model system ...

DNA Methylation and RNA-DNA Hybrids Regulate the Single-Molecule Localization of a DNA Methyltransferase on the Bacterial Nucleoid

open access: yesmBio, 2023
Bacterial DNA methyltransferases (MTases) function in restriction modification systems, cell cycle control, and the regulation of gene expression. DnmA is a recently described DNA MTase that forms N6-methyladenosine at nonpalindromic 5′-GACGAG-3′ sites ...

Fork rotation and DNA precatenation are restricted during DNA replication to prevent chromosomal instability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Faithful genome duplication and inheritance require the complete resolution of all intertwines within the parental DNA duplex. This is achieved by topoisomerase action ahead of the replication fork or by fork rotation and subsequent resolution of the DNA

Structure of the polymerase ε holoenzyme and atomic model of the leading strand replisome

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
The eukaryotic leading strand DNA polymerase (Pol) ε contains 4 subunits, Pol2, Dpb2, Dpb3 and Dpb4. Pol2 is a fusion of two B-family Pols; the N-terminal Pol module is catalytic and the C-terminal Pol module is non-catalytic.

The Macromolecular Machines that Duplicate the Escherichia coli Chromosome as Targets for Drug Discovery

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2018
DNA replication is an essential process. Although the fundamental strategies to duplicate chromosomes are similar in all free-living organisms, the enzymes of the three domains of life that perform similar functions in DNA replication differ in amino ...

Homologous Recombination: To Fork and Beyond [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Accurate completion of genome duplication is threatened by multiple factors that hamper the advance and stability of the replication forks. Cells need to tolerate many of these blocking lesions to timely complete DNA replication, postponing their repair ...

Proteomic analysis of the zone of degeneration at the mitosis–meiosis transition stage in wild‐caught male catshark (Scyliorhinus canicula), correlated with an unusually high‐water temperature in the English Channel

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract In the context of current global change, variations in water temperature are one of the environmental conditions with serious consequences for marine life, including reproductive processes. In the small spotted catshark Scyliorhinus canicula, spermatogenesis occurs in spermatocysts composed of synchronously developing germ cells associated ...
