- Here, the initiator protein, helicase, recognize and then binds to the origin to unwind the DNA. When the DNA unwinds, two Y-shaped structures called replication forks are formed, together making up the replication bubble. The two forks move in opposite directions as the replication proceeds.

Apr 8, 2024 · DNA replication can be thought of in three stages: initiation, elongation and termination. Initiation. DNA synthesis is initiated at particular points within the DNA strand known as ‘ origins ’, which have specific coding regions.
Mar 17, 2022 · The replication of DNA occurs during the synthesis phase, or S phase, of the cell cycle, before the cell enters mitosis or meiosis. The elucidation of the structure of the double helix provided a hint as to how DNA is copied.
Jun 2, 2024 · Step 1: Initiation. The point at which the replication begins is known as the Origin of Replication (oriC). Helicase brings about the procedure of strand separation, which leads to the formation of the replication fork. Step 2: Elongation.

The replication of the genome of a eukaryotic cell is a tightly regulated process. Firstly, replication is coordinated with general macromolecular synthesis, so that the DNA-to-protein ratio is maintained within a relatively narrow range. This involves a mechanism that couples the initiation of DNA replication to the achievement of a critical ...

Here we present an overview of the current progress on our understanding of the initiation step of DNA replication in human cells, and its relationship to abnormal cell proliferation.
The ORC complex appears to recruit other proteins (including DNA helicases) to the origin, leading to the initiation of replication. The mechanism of initiation of DNA replication in yeasts thus appears similar to that in prokaryotes and eukaryotic viruses; that is, an initiator protein specifically binds to origin sequences.
