Description: Monoclonal antibody raised in mouse against human ORC2 (origin recognition complex, subunit 2), using two recombinant proteins containing the N-terminal and C-terminal part of the protein, respectively. Applications Suggested dilution Results Western blotting 1:500 Fig 1 Target description ORC2 (UniProt/Swiss-Prot entry Q13416) is one of the six subunits of the ORC (origin recognition complex) that binds origins of replication. The binding of ORC to DNA is ATP-dependent, but so far, specific DNA sequences that define origins of replication have not been identified. The ORC is required to assemble the pre-replication complex necessary to initiate DNA replication. The ORC is regulated in a cell cycle-dependent manner. It is assembled at the end of the anaphase of mitosis and disassembled when cells enter the S phase. 1 Results Figure 1.

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated.

The Architecture of the DNA Replication Origin Recognition Complex in Saccharomyces Cerevisiae
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Spiral - Imperial College Digital Repository The architecture of the DNA replication origin recognition complex in Saccharomyces cerevisiae Zhiqiang Chen, Christian Speck, Patricia Wendel, Chunyan Tang, Bruce Stillman, and Huilin Li ABSTRACT The origin recognition complex (ORC) is conserved in all eukaryotes. The six proteins of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae ORC that form a stable complex bind to origins of DNA replication and recruit prereplicative complex (pre-RC) proteins, one of which is Cdc6. To further understand the function of ORC we recently determined by single-particle reconstruction of electron micrographs a low-resolution, 3D structure of S. cerevisiae ORC and the ORC–Cdc6 complex. In this article, the spatial arrangement of the ORC subunits within the ORC structure is described. In one approach, a maltose binding protein (MBP) was systematically fused to the N or the C termini of the five largest ORC subunits, one subunit at a time, generating 10 MBP-fused ORCs, and the MBP density was localized in the averaged, 2D EM images of the MBP-fused ORC particles. Determining the Orc1–5 structure and comparing it with the native ORC structure localized the Orc6 subunit near Orc2 and Orc3. Finally, subunit–subunit interactions were determined by immunoprecipitation of ORC subunits synthesized in vitro. Based on the derived ORC architecture and existing structures of archaeal Orc1–DNA structures, we propose a model for ORC and suggest how ORC interacts with origin DNA and Cdc6. The studies provide a basis for understanding the overall structure of the pre- RC.

Abstract: Protecting telomere from the DNA damage response is essential to avoid the entry into cellular senescence and organismal aging. The progressive telomere DNA shortening in dividing somatic cells, programmed during development, leads to critically short telomeres that trigger replicative senescence and thereby contribute to aging. In several organisms, including mammals, telomeres are protected by a protein complex named Shelterin that counteract at various levels the DNA damage response at chromosome ends through the speciﬁc function of each of its subunits. The changes in Shelterin structure and function during development and aging is thus an intense area of research. Here, we review our knowledge on the existence of several Shelterin subcomplexes and the functional independence between them. This leads us to discuss the possibility that the multifunctionality of the Shelterin complex is determined by the formation of different subcomplexes Citation: Ghilain, C.; Gilson, E.; whose composition may change during aging.

The Human Origin Recognition Complex Is Essential for Pre-RC Assembly

Here, using tiling-sgRNA CRISPR screens, we report that each subunit of ORC and CDC6 is essential in human cells. Using an auxin-inducible degradation system, we created stable cell lines capable of ablating ORC2 rapidly, revealing multiple cell division cycle phenotypes. The primary defects in the absence of ORC2 were cells encountering difficulty in initiating DNA replication or progressing through the cell division cycle due to reduced MCM2-7 loading onto chromatin in G1 phase. The nuclei of ORC2-deficient cells were also large, with decompacted heterochromatin. Some ORC2-deficient cells that completed DNA replication entered into, but never exited mitosis. ORC1 knockout cells also demonstrated extremely slow cell proliferation and abnormal cell and nuclear morphology. Thus, ORC proteins and CDC6 are indispensable for normal cellular proliferation and contribute to nuclear organization. *For correspondence: [email protected] †These authors contributed equally to this work Introduction Cell division requires the entire genome to be duplicated once and only once during S-phase of the Competing interest: See cell cycle, followed by segregation of the sister chromatids into two daughter cells.

Cdc6 on an Origin DNA Reveals the Mechanism of ORC
ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-021-24199-1 OPEN The structure of ORC–Cdc6 on an origin DNA reveals the mechanism of ORC activation by the replication initiator Cdc6 ✉ ✉ Xiang Feng 1, Yasunori Noguchi2,3, Marta Barbon2,3, Bruce Stillman 4 , Christian Speck 2,3 & ✉ Huilin Li 1 1234567890():,; The Origin Recognition Complex (ORC) binds to sites in chromosomes to specify the location of origins of DNA replication. The S. cerevisiae ORC binds to speciﬁc DNA sequences throughout the cell cycle but becomes active only when it binds to the replication initiator Cdc6. It has been unclear at the molecular level how Cdc6 activates ORC, converting it to an active recruiter of the Mcm2-7 hexamer, the core of the replicative helicase. Here we report the cryo-EM structure at 3.3 Å resolution of the yeast ORC–Cdc6 bound to an 85-bp ARS1 origin DNA. The structure reveals that Cdc6 contributes to origin DNA recognition via its winged helix domain (WHD) and its initiator-speciﬁc motif. Cdc6 binding rearranges a short α-helix in the Orc1 AAA+ domain and the Orc2 WHD, leading to the activation of the Cdc6 ATPase and the formation of the three sites for the recruitment of Mcm2-7, none of which are present in ORC alone. The results illuminate the molecular mechanism of a critical biochemical step in the licensing of eukaryotic replication origins. 1 Department of Structural Biology, Van Andel Institute, Grand Rapids, MI, USA. 2 DNA Replication Group, Institute of Clinical Sciences, Faculty of Medicine, Imperial College London, London, UK.

ORC sites in early and the possibility that the timing pattern might arise from stochastic late replicating regions have similar properties, but there are far more firing from all origins (4, 5).
