Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To ensure the faithful transmission of genetic material to each progeny cell, DNA replication has to be accomplished faithfully and the duplicated chromosomes have to be distributed equally to the daughter cells. My dissertation focuses on the MSA1 gene, which functions as a transcription factor to facilitate the DNA replication during S-phase, and HSK3, which functions in the DASH complex to ensure the proper segregation of chromosomes in mitosis. DRC1 is isolated as a genomic suppressor of dpb11-1 and forms the initiator complex with Dpb11 that facilitates the recruitment of DNA polymerase to origins. The drc1-1 mutant shows sensitivity to the replication inhibitor, hydroxyurea. In the first study, we identify a cell cycle regulated transcription factor, MSA1, as a suppressor of drc1-1 . MSA1 overproduction also suppresses the temperature sensitivity of dpb11-1 and pol2-12 (the catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase [varepsilon]). Conversely, msa1 deletion exacerbates the mutant phenotypes of both drc1-1 and dpb11-1 and msa1 deletion alone results in a delay in S phase entry, which suggests a positive role for MSA1 in DNA replication. MSA1 represents a new cell cycle regulated gene important for S phase entry.

Download or read book Regulation of G1 Phase Progression written by Johannes Boonstra and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2003-09-30 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this contribution, several specialists describe the current knowledge on the molecular networks that regulate cell cycle progression, with an emphasis on the G1 phase of the cell cycle. The first part of Regulation of G1 Phase Progression is concerned with the individual molecules that form the network, including cyclins, cyclin-dependent kinases, inhibitors of these kinases and retinoblastoma and p53. The second section describes the signaling cascades by which external factors influence the cell cycle network, including mitogens, the extracellular matrix, nutrients and oxygen radicals. The last section describes the effects of specific external conditions on cell cycle progression and are presented such as serum starvation and subsequent re-addition and stress conditions (heat, osmolarity). The final two chapters describe the relation between cell cycle progression with cell differentiation and with apoptosis.
Download or read book DNA Replication written by Hisao Masai and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-01-22 with total page 581 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reviews the latest trends and future directions of DNA replication research. The contents reflect upon the principles that have been established through the genetic and enzymatic studies of bacterial, viral, and cellular replication during the past decades. The book begins with a historical overview of the studies on eukaryotic DNA replication by Professor Thomas Kelly, a pioneer of the field. The following chapters include genome-wide studies of replication origins and initiation factor binding, as well as the timing of DNA replications, mechanisms of initiation, DNA chain elongation and termination of DNA replication, the structural basis of functions of protein complexes responsible for execution of DNA replication, cell cycle-dependent regulation of DNA replication, the nature of replication stress and cells’ strategy to deal with the stress, and finally how all these phenomena are interconnected to genome instability and development of various diseases. By reviewing the existing concepts ranging from the old principles to the newest ideas, the book gives readers an opportunity to learn how the classical replication principles are now being modified and new concepts are being generated to explain how genome DNA replication is achieved with such high adaptability and plasticity. With the development of new methods including cryoelectron microscopy analyses of huge protein complexes, single molecular analyses of initiation and elongation of DNA replication, and total reconstitution of eukaryotic DNA replication with purified factors, the field is enjoying one of its most exciting moments, and this highly timely book conveys that excitement to all interested readers.
Download or read book Spatio Temporal Regulation of Cell Cycle Transcription written by Umut Eser and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Start checkpoint regulates cell cycle commitment and associated transcription in the budding yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It was previously shown that commitment to cell division corresponds to activating the positive feedback loop of G1 cyclins controlled by the transcription factors SBF and MBF. Around this pivotal cell cycle event, over 300 genes (G1/S regulon) are expressed to facilitate the G1/S transition. Despite its importance, little was known about distinct temporal regulation within the G1/S regulon. We found that SBF and MBF target genes have a well-defined distribution of transcriptional activation times. We also showed that activation of G1 cyclins precedes the activation of the bulk of the G1/S regulon, which we named 'feedback-first' regulation. In budding yeast, feedback-first regulation ensures that commitment to cell division occurs before large-scale changes in transcription. Thus, the transition can be viewed as a two-step process whereby the decision to divide precedes synthesis of the cellular machinery required for division. Furthermore, we found that feedback-first regulation is conserved in the related yeast S. bayanus as well as human cells. This finding highlighted the importance of understanding the molecular mechanisms through which co-regulated genes can have distinct activation dynamics. We showed that timing is partially explained by the combinatorial use of SBF and MBF transcription factors, which implement a logical OR function for gene activation. In addition to combinatorial use of transcription factors, we analyzed genome-wide chromosome conformation capture data to examine the potential link between the timing of gene expression and 3-D genome architecture. The early-activated genes of the G1/S regulon are significantly enriched for the number of physical contacts to the rest of the genome. Further analysis revealed two main clusters, whose interactions co-vary and whose activation time distributions are distinct. Taken together, these our work explains a significant amount of timing variation within cell cycle-dependent gene expression. Thus, we concluded that the cell utilizes both genome architecture and the combinatorial use of transcription factors to implement feedback-first regulation ensuring that commitment to cell division precedes genome-wide cell cycle-dependent transcription.
