DNAReplication: a database of information and resources for the eukaryotic DNA replication community
نویسندگان
چکیده
DNAReplication (at http://www.dnareplication.net) has been set up as a freely available single resource to facilitate access to information on eukaryotic DNA replication. This database summarizes organism-sorted data on replication proteins in the categories of nomenclature, biochemical properties, motifs, interactions, modifications, structure, cell localization and expression, and general comments. Replication concepts are defined and a general model of the steps in DNA replication is presented. Links to relevant websites and homepages of replication labs are provided. The site also has an interactive section where links to recent replication papers are posted and readers are provided with the facility to post comments about each paper. The interactive and links pages are modified weekly and the whole site is updated annually.

Cell Timer/Cell Clock
Like the biological clock in the body, replication of each cell type (even different cells of the same organism) follows a timing program. Abnormal function of this timer could be an alarm for a disease like cancer. DNA replication starts from a specific point on the chromosome that is called the origin of replication. In contrast to prokaryotes in which DNA replication starts from a single ...
متن کاملOriDB: a DNA replication origin database
Replication of eukaryotic chromosomes initiates at multiple sites called replication origins. Replication origins are best understood in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, where several complementary studies have mapped their locations genome-wide. We have collated these datasets, taking account of the resolution of each study, to generate a single list of distinct origin sites. OriDB ...

متن کاملDNA REPLICATION AND SYNTHESIS OF DNABINDING PROTEINS IN THE CHLOROPLASTS OF A CALLUS CULTURE
Continuous labelling of callus with H-thymidine results in intermittent peaks of H-DNA per chloroplast, showing synchrony of division. The increase in H-DNA could be due to several replication rounds, and the drop to successive plastid divisions without intervening DNA synthesis. The level of DNA-binding proteins in the chloroplast parallels the peaks of plastidal DNA synthesis; such pro...
متن کاملDeOri: a database of eukaryotic DNA replication origins
SUMMARY DNA replication, a central event for cell proliferation, is the basis of biological inheritance. The identification of replication origins helps to reveal the mechanism of the regulation of DNA replication. However, only few eukaryotic replication origins were characterized not long ago; nevertheless, recent genome-wide approaches have boosted the number of mapped replication origins. T...
