The origin recognition complex: from simple origins to complex functions

Open access

Abstract

Eukaryotic DNA replication is an intricate process that requires the coordinate and tightly regulated action of numerous molecular machines. Eukaryotic cells must choose hundreds if not thousands of origins of replication and assemble multiple proteins or protein complexes at these sites. During S phase, these complexes are activated in a reproducible, temporal program to generate twice this number of replication fork machines dedicated to DNA synthesis. Moreover, these machines must overcome the highly packaged nature of the eukaryotic genome to access all DNA sites, without excep

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
