  2. DNA replication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_replication

    DNA replication is an all-or-none process; once replication begins, it proceeds to completion. Once replication is complete, it does not occur again in the same cell cycle. This is made possible by the division of initiation of the pre-replication complex. [citation needed]

  3. Replication timing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Replication_timing

    However, replication does not start at all the different origins at once. Rather, there is a defined temporal order in which these origins fire. Frequently a few adjacent origins open up to duplicate a segment of a chromosome, followed some time later by another group of origins opening up in an adjacent segment.

    The Cdc45 protein assembles at replication origins before initiation and is required for replication to begin in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and has an essential role during elongation. Thus, Cdc45 has central roles in both initiation and elongation phases of chromosomal DNA replication. [52]

  5. Origin of replication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Origin_of_replication

    Once replication is complete, specific termination events lead to the disassembly of replisomes. As long as the entire genome is duplicated before cell division, one might assume that the location of replication start sites does not matter; yet, it has been shown that many organisms use preferred genomic regions as origins.

  6. Control of chromosome duplication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_of_chromosome...

    Before DNA replication can start, the pre-replicative complex assembles at origins to load helicase onto DNA. The complex assembles in late mitosis and early G1. Assembly of these pre-replicative complexes (pre-RCs) is regulated in a manner that coordinates DNA replication with the cell cycle. [6]

  7. Pre-replication complex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pre-replication_complex

    Single-strand binding proteins stabilize the newly formed replication bubble and interact with the DnaG primase. DnaG recruits the replicative DNA polymerase III, and replication begins. In eukaryotes, MCM heterohexamer is phosphorylated by CDC7 and CDK, which displaces Cdc6 and recruits MCM10. MCM10 cooperates with MCM2-7 in the recruitment of ...

  8. Cell cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_cycle

    G 2 phase occurs after DNA replication and is a period of protein synthesis and rapid cell growth to prepare the cell for mitosis. During this phase microtubules begin to reorganize to form a spindle (preprophase). Before proceeding to mitotic phase, cells must be checked at the G 2 checkpoint for any

  9. Prokaryotic DNA replication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prokaryotic_DNA_replication

    Prokaryotic DNA Replication is the process by which a prokaryote duplicates its DNA into another copy that is passed on to daughter cells. [1] Although it is often studied in the model organism E. coli, other bacteria show many similarities. [2] Replication is bi-directional and originates at a single origin of replication (OriC). [3]
