Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) is a homo-trimeric clamp complex that serves as the molecular hub for various DNA transactions, including DNA synthesis and post-replicative mismatch repair. Its timely loading and unloading are critical for genome stability. PCNA loading is catalyzed by Replication factor C (RFC) and the Ctf18 RFC-like complex (Ctf18-RLC), and its unloading is catalyzed by Atad5/Elg1-RLC.

Despite clusters being a fundamental organising principle of metazoan DNA replication, the genomic location of origin clusters has not been documented. : We synchronised human U2OS by thymidine block and release followed by L-mimosine block and release to create a population of cells progressing into S phase with a high degree of synchrony.

Aim: To present the clinical results following revision arthroplasty with the Bioball head-neck adapter in the elderly American Society of Anaesthesiologists (ASA) Grade II, III & IV patients.
