[HTML][HTML] Regulation of early events in chromosome replication

JFX Diffley - Current Biology, 2004 - cell.com
Eukaryotic genomes are replicated from large numbers of replication origins distributed on
multiple chromosomes. The activity of these origins must be coordinated so that the entire …

[PDF][PDF] DNA replication and oncogene-induced replicative stress

SA Hills, JFX Diffley - Current biology, 2014 - cell.com
DNA replication must be tightly regulated to ensure that the genome is accurately duplicated
during each cell cycle. When these regulatory mechanisms fail, replicative stress and DNA …

The initiation of eukaryotic DNA replication

A Costa, JFX Diffley - Annual review of biochemistry, 2022 - annualreviews.org
DNA replication in eukaryotic cells initiates from large numbers of sites called replication
origins. Initiation of replication from these origins must be tightly controlled to ensure the entire …

Uninterrupted MCM2-7 function required for DNA replication fork progression

K Labib, JA Tercero, JFX Diffley - Science, 2000 - science.org
Little is known about the DNA helicases required for the elongation phase of eukaryotic
chromosome replication. Minichromosome maintenance (MCM) protein complexes have DNA …

A Mec1-and Rad53-dependent checkpoint controls late-firing origins of DNA replication

C Santocanale, JFX Diffley - Nature, 1998 - nature.com
DNA replication in eukaryotic cells initiates from many replication origins 1 which fire throughout
the S phase of the cell cycle in a predictable pattern: some origins fire early, others late …

Regulation of DNA replication fork progression through damaged DNA by the Mec1/Rad53 checkpoint

JA Tercero, JFX Diffley - Nature, 2001 - nature.com
The checkpoint kinase proteins Mec1 and Rad53 are required in the budding yeast,
Saccharomyces cerevisiae, to maintain cell viability in the presence of drugs causing damage to …

[HTML][HTML] Concerted loading of Mcm2–7 double hexamers around DNA during DNA replication origin licensing

…, F Beuron, G Tolun, JD Griffith, EP Morris, JFX Diffley - Cell, 2009 - cell.com
The licensing of eukaryotic DNA replication origins, which ensures once-per-cell-cycle
replication, involves the loading of six related minichromosome maintenance proteins (Mcm2–7) …

Two steps in the assembly of complexes at yeast replication origins in vivo

JFX Diffley, JH Cocker, SJ Dowell, A Rowley - Cell, 1994 - cell.com
The integration of chromosomal DNA replication into the eukaryotic cell cycle might involve
temporal regulation of interactions between cellular factors and replication origins. We show …

Cdc6p-dependent loading of Mcm proteins onto pre-replicative chromatin in budding yeast

…, J Harwood, LS Drury, JFX Diffley - Proceedings of the …, 1997 - National Acad Sciences
The Cdc6 protein is essential for the assembly of pre-replicative complexes (pre-RCs) at
origins of DNA replication in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. This reaction is …

Mrc1 transduces signals of DNA replication stress to activate Rad53

…, F Hu, PJH Werler, K Bousset, K Furuya, JFX Diffley… - Nature cell …, 2001 - nature.com
Cells experiencing DNA replication stress activate a response pathway that delays entry into
mitosis and promotes DNA repair and completion of DNA replication. The protein kinases …
