Identification of a predominant replication origin in fission yeast.
We have identified five autonomously replicating sequences (ARSs) in a 100 kbp region of the Schizosaccharomyces pombe chromosome II. Analyses of replicative intermediates of the chromosome DNA by neutral/neutral two-dimensional gel electrophoresis demonstrated that at least three of these ARS loci operate as chromosomal replication origins. One of the loci,ori2004, was utilized in almost every...
متن کاملLarge, complex modular structure of a fission yeast DNA replication origin
BACKGROUND In the budding yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, each DNA replication origin is associated with an autonomously replicating sequence (ARS) element. Each element contains several modules, including an essential close match to the 11 base-pair (bp) ARS consensus sequence (ACS) and two or three short (< 20 bp) stimulatory motifs, within a stretch of approximately 150 bp or less. To deter...
متن کاملGenome-wide localization of pre-RC sites and identification of replication origins in fission yeast.
DNA replication of eukaryotic chromosomes initiates at a number of discrete loci, called replication origins. Distribution and regulation of origins are important for complete duplication of the genome. Here, we determined locations of Orc1 and Mcm6, components of pre-replicative complex (pre-RC), on the whole genome of Schizosaccharomyces pombe using a high-resolution tiling array. Pre-RC site...
متن کاملOrganization of DNA replication origins in the fission yeast genome.
Eukaryotic DNA replication initiates at multiple points along the chromosomes known as replication origins (ORIs). We have developed a strategy to identify ORIs directly from replication intermediates in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Mapping of a selection of the novel ORIs onto the genome reveals their preferential localization at intergenic regions upstream from genes. These re...
متن کاملModeling the control of DNA replication in fission yeast.
A central event in the eukaryotic cell cycle is the decision to commence DNA replication (S phase). Strict controls normally operate to prevent repeated rounds of DNA replication without intervening mitoses ("endoreplication") or initiation of mitosis before DNA is fully replicated ("mitotic catastrophe"). Some of the genetic interactions involved in these controls have recently been identified...
