Replication in Eukaryotes

16.9K
In eukaryotic cells, DNA replication is highly conserved and tightly regulated. Multiple linear chromosomes must be duplicated with high fidelity before cell division, so there are many proteins that fulfill specialized roles in the replication process. Replication occurs in three phases: initiation, elongation, and termination, and ends with two complete sets of chromosomes in the nucleus.

Chromosome Replication

10.3K
Before a cell can divide, it must accurately replicate all of its chromosomes, including the DNA and its associated histone and non-histone proteins.  This process begins at numerous origins of replication during the S phase of the cell cycle in each of a cell’s chromosomes simultaneously. Certain nucleotides can act as origins of replication, but these sequences are not well defined - especially in complex, multi-cellular, eukaryotic species. The length of DNA that spans an origin...

S-Cdk Initiates DNA Replication

5.3K
The cell cycle is a series of events leading to DNA duplication followed by the division of cell content to form two daughter cells. The cell cycle progresses in four stages—the cell increases in size (gap 1 or G1-phase), duplicates its DNA (synthesis or S-phase), prepares to divide (gap 2 or G2-phase), and divides (mitosis or M-phase).
Two states at the origin of replication
In eukaryotes, the initiation of replication occurs at many sites on the chromosomes, called the origins of...

The DNA Replication Fork01:02

The DNA Replication Fork

40.2K
An organism’s genome needs to be duplicated in an efficient and error-free manner for its growth and survival. The replication fork is a Y-shaped active region where two strands of DNA are separated and replicated continuously. The coupling of DNA unzipping and complementary strand synthesis is a characteristic feature of a replication fork.   Organisms with small circular DNA, such as E. coli, often have a single origin of replication; therefore, they have only two replication...

DNA Damage Can Stall the Cell Cycle02:36

DNA Damage Can Stall the Cell Cycle

3.0K
In response to DNA damage, cells can pause the cell cycle to assess and repair the breaks. However, the cell must check the DNA at certain critical stages during the cell cycle. If the cell cycle pauses before DNA replication, the cells will contain twice the amount of DNA. On the other hand, if cells arrest after DNA replication but before mitosis, they will contain four times the normal amount of DNA. With a host of specialized proteins at their disposal,cells must use the right protein at...

Summary

Human B-cell precursor acute lymphoid leukemias (BCP-ALLs) show distinct DNA replication timing (RT) programs. These programs mirror normal B-cell differentiation stages and may indicate leukemia-specific epigenetic changes linked to relapse.

Area of Science:

  • Genomics
  • Cell Biology
  • Cancer Research

Background:

  • Human B-cell precursor acute lymphoid leukemias (BCP-ALLs) are distinct diseases characterized by differentiation arrest.
  • BCP-ALL cells exhibit unique, stable DNA replication timing (RT) programs.
  • RT programs describe the order of DNA replication and 3D genome organization.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare BCP-ALL RT programs with those of normal human B-cell differentiation.
  • To investigate if BCP-ALL RT programs reflect specific differentiation stages or deviations.
  • To identify RT features associated with BCP-ALL subtypes and clinical outcomes.

Main Methods:

  • Transplantation of normal human CD34+ cord blood cells into immunodeficient mice.
  • Obtaining RT signatures from regenerating normal B-lineage populations.
  • Comparing these normal RT signatures with those from a large cohort of BCP-ALL patient samples.

Main Results:

  • BCP-ALL subtypes display unique RT programs that resemble specific normal B-cell differentiation stages.
  • Certain RT features in BCP-ALL cells are associated with patient relapse.
  • Significant differences in RT programs were observed between BCP-ALL subtypes.

Conclusions:

  • BCP-ALL development involves alterations in DNA replication timing.
  • These RT alterations reflect biologically significant, leukemia-specific epigenetic changes.
  • RT programs may serve as potential biomarkers for BCP-ALL prognosis and therapeutic strategies.
