Modulation of Mcm2–7 activity by Cdt1

Abstract: Genome duplication occurs once and only once in each cell cycle. During G1 phase, pre‐replicative complexes (pre‐RC), composed of ORC, Cdc6, Cdt1 and Mcm2–7, are assembled at replication origins. Mcm2–7 is the replicative helicase in eukaryotic cells; however, it does not unwind DNA in the pre‐RC. It is only in S‐phase, after activation of Mcm2–7, that DNA unwinding is detected. Cdt1 co‐purifies from yeast cells in a complex with Mcm2–7. Beyond being an escort for entry of Mcm2–7 into the nucleus and into the … Show more
