Activation of mammalian Chk1 during DNA replication arrest: a role for Chk1 in the intra-S phase checkpoint monitoring replication origin firing [PDF]
, 2001 Checkpoints maintain order and fidelity in the cell cycle by blocking late-occurring events when earlier events are improperly executed. Here we describe evidence for the participation of Chk1 in an intra-S phase checkpoint in mammalian cells.

Cell-cycle regulated transcription associates with DNA replication timing in yeast and human [PDF]
, 2013 Eukaryotic DNA replication follows a specific temporal program, with some genomic regions consistently replicating earlier than others, yet what determines this program is largely unknown.

AKTIP/Ft1, a new shelterin-interacting factor required for telomere maintenance [PDF]
, 2015 Telomeres are nucleoprotein complexes that protect the ends of linear chromosomes from incomplete replication, degradation and detection as DNA breaks. Mammalian telomeres are protected by shelterin, a multiprotein complex that binds the TTAGGG telomeric

Damage-induced phosphorylation of Sld3 is important to block late origin firing. [PDF]
, 2010 Origins of replication are activated throughout the S phase of the cell cycle such that some origins fire early and others fire late to ensure that each chromosome is completely replicated in a timely fashion.

ETAA1 ensures proper chromosome segregation: A matter of S phase or mitosis? [PDF]
, 2019 ETAA1 activates the master checkpoint kinase ATR. Bass and Cortez (2019. J. Cell Biol. https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.201810058) recently reported an intra-mitotic function of ETAA1 that safeguards chromosome stability.

Meier–Gorlin syndrome and Wolf–Hirschhorn syndrome: two developmental disorders highlighting the importance of efficient DNA replication for normal development and neurogenesis [PDF]
, 2013 Microcephaly represents one of the most obvious clinical manifestations of impaired neurogenesis. Defects in the DNA damage response, in DNA repair, and structural abnormalities in centrosomes, centrioles and the spindle microtubule network have all been

Methylated DNMT1 and E2F1 Are Targeted for Proteolysis by L3MBTL3 and CRL4DCAF5 Ubiquitin Ligase [PDF]
, 2018 Many non-histone proteins are lysine methylated and a novel function of this modification is to trigger the proteolysis of methylated proteins. Here, we report that the methylated lysine 142 of DNMT1, a major DNA methyltransferase that preserves ...

The properties of nerve cell precursors in hydra [PDF]
, 1986 Two signals, the head activator and an injury stimulus, control differentiation of nerve cells from uncommitted stem cells in hydra [Th. Holstein, H. C. Schaller, and C. N. David, (1986) Dev. Biol. 115, 9–17].
