Multiple tandem origins suppressed the plasmid-maintenance defect of orc5-1 and orc2-1 mutants. ORC2 and ORC5 interact genetically with members of the MCM/P1 family (CDC46, CDC47 and CDC54) and with CDC6, CDC7 and CDC14 (which encodes a putative phosphatase involve in DNA replication.

Role for a Xenopus Orc2-related protein in controlling DNA replication. of outstanding interest Nature. 379:1996;357-360 This paper describes the cloning of the Xenopus Orc2 gene. Indirect immunofluorescence studies in Xenopus egg extracts show that Orc2 binds to chromatin before DNA replication starts. Replication initiation is prevented when Orc2 is removed from egg extracts with specific antibodies, suggesting that Orc2 plays a key role in replication initiation.

Recombinant Orp2 associates with Cdc2 and Cdc18 in fission yeast lysates. These findings suggest that Cdc2 controls DNA replication by interacting with replication origins.

Interaction between the origin recognition complex and the replication licensing system in Xenopus. of outstanding interest Cell. 1996; The authors describe the cloning of the Xenopus Orc1 gene and the purification of the Xenopus ORC complex. Immunodepletion of Orc1 from egg extracts with anti-Orc1 antibodies also removes Orc2. This treatment prevents replication initiation from occurring and Mcm3 from binding to chromatin, although RLF is still active. The results also demonstrate a requirements for the sequential assembly of Orc1 and then Mcm3 onto chromatin.

16. 1→S-phase transition. Expression of cdc18 is required for replication initiation to occur and cdc18 overexpression induces repeated rounds of DNA replication without an intervening mitosis. This suggests that Cdc18 is rate-limiting for S-phase entry and that its degradation prevents replication in a single cell cycle.

This treatment prevents DNA replication from occurring. Native Mcm3 could apparently cross the nuclear envelope, as nuclei assembled in a Mcm3-depleted extract became competent to replicate following transfer to underpleted extract.
