Rothstein Colocalization of multiple DNA double-strand breaks at a single Rad52 repair centre Nat Cell Biol 5 2003 572 577 This study shows that Rad52 is recruited rapidly at sites of double-strand breaks (DSBs) in live cells and that one Rad52-GFP focus can contain multiple DSBs. It also reveals that up to 20% of wild-type cells in S or G2 phase show a short-lived Rad52-GFP focus suggesting that DSBs occur spontaneously during DNA replication in a significant fraction of cells.

Bernander Three replication origins in Sulfolobus species: synchronous initiation of chromosome replication and asynchronous termination Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 101 2004 7046 7051 Archaeal organisms function with an interesting mix of prokaryotic and eukaryotic features. DNA replication for example uses Orc/Cdc6 and Mcm proteins but the mode of replication (single origin, fast moving forks) was thought to be more bacterial-like. This study shows that, in contrast to other archaea [11], two Sulfolobus species contain three replication origins. A microarray-based gene copy number approach indicates that all three origins fire synchronously, with forks progressing at constant (eukaryotic-like) speed. Therefore these species are a nice experimental system to study the transition from single to multiple replicons as well as the coupling of replication with chromosome partitioning.

Amazingly DNA replication is fast (24 min) and occurs during the reductive phase (low oxygen levels), perhaps to reduce oxidative damage during S phase. Whether same or different origins are used in this peculiar cycle is open.

DePamphilis Xenopus origin recognition complex (ORC) initiates DNA replication preferentially at sequences targeted by Schizosaccharomyces pombe ORC EMBO J 22 2003 3441 3450 This study shows that Schizosaccharomyces pombe origin recognition complex (ORC) hydrolyzes ATP for preRC assembly, not for origin recognition. The SpOrc4 subunit, which is responsible for DNA binding via its AT-hooks, competes with Xenopus ORC and inhibits DNA replication in egg extracts, suggesting that SpOrc4 targets the same sequences as XlORC.

Nevertheless this HsORC fully restores replication to an ORC-depleted frog egg extract, confirming that specific sequences are not required for replication in this system.

This correlates with increased histone acetylation but not with local ORC binding, suggesting that initiation is favoured rather than ORC recruitment.

Replication origins were identified in the two cell types of Physarum, plasmodium and amoeba. A subset of origins, those located next to 'house-keeping' genes, are activated in both cell types whereas other origins, such as located near the promoters of the unlinked Profilin A and Profilin P genes, are activated in a cell-type specific manner.

This study shows that global histone deacetylation by the Rpd3 HDAC is crucial for allowing the localized recruitment of ORC and origin re-firing at the chorion locus. Converse experiments indicate that the balance between HAT (histone acetyl transferase) and HDAC (histone deacetylase) activity influences origin usage during development.

These regions include most if not all tRNA and rRNA genes, centromeres, telomeres and unfired preRCs, for an estimated total of 1400 sites distributed throughout the genome. Importantly, the pause sites exist in wild-type cells, but pausing is amplified and necessitates checkpoint proteins for restart in rrm3 mutants. This study is important because it shows that fork pausing occurs in a programmed manner throughout the genome.

Cells lacking the CDK inhibitor Sic1 initiate DNA synthesis from fewer origins, S phase is extended but mitosis begins on schedule, suggesting either that ongoing DNA replication is not detected or that the checkpoint is ineffective in sic1 mutants. This is the first study showing that origin density is crucial for genome integrity.

This study elegantly shows that among their many proposed roles, the most important one for viability is to prevent replication fork collapse. It also demonstrates that checkpoint activation occurs during S phase and requires fork stalling.

The study shows that Tof1 and Mrc1 proteins travel with the replication fork and are necessary to form a stable pausing complex, which then recruits other checkpoint factors.

This study reveals that differential DNA binding constants of ORC influence the switch either towards silent chromatin formation (strong ORC:DNA interaction) or origin firing (weak ORC:DNA interaction). This may be part of the mechanism that shuts down gene expression and delays replication timing during differentiation.
