Incubation in YPD medium under permissive conditions when DNA replication is going on, strongly stimulates the induction of cdc+ colonies of UV-irradiated cells of yeast strains HB23 (cdc8-1/cdc8-3), HB26 (cdc8-3/cdc8-3) and HB7 (cdc8-1/cdc8-1). Inhibition of DNA replication by hydroxyurea, araCMP, cycloheximide or caffeine or else by incubation in phosphate buffer pH 7.0, abolishes this stimulation. Thus the replication of DNA is strongly correlated with the high induction of cdc+ colonies by UV irradiation. It is postulated that these UV-induced cdc+ colonies arise as the result infidelity in DNA replication.

The association between late replication timing and low transcription rates in eukaryotic heterochromatin is well known, yet the specific mechanisms underlying this link remain uncertain. In , the histone deacetylase Sir2 is required for both transcriptional silencing and late replication at the repetitive ribosomal DNA (rDNA) arrays. We have previously reported that in the absence of , a de-repressed RNA PolII repositions MCM replicative helicases from their loading site at the ribosomal origin, where they abut well-positioned, high-occupancy nucleosomes, to an adjacent region with lower nucleosome occupancy.

G4s have both positive and negative impacts on various aspects of nucleic acid metabolism including DNA replication, DNA repair and RNA transcription. Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP1), an important anticancer drug target, has been recently shown to bind a subset of G4s, and to undergo auto-PARylation.

A multi-omics study in a human cell line with mutations in three subunits of ORC, reveals that the subunits bind to DNA independent of each other rather than as part of a common six-subunit ORC. While DNA-bound ORC2 was seen to compact chromatin and attract repressive histone marks, the activation of chromatin and protection from repressive marks was seen at a large number of sites.

Despite encoding its own DNA polymerase and processivity factor, human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) recruits the cellular processivity factor, proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and specialized host DNA polymerases involved in translesion synthesis (TLS) to replication compartments (RCs) where viral DNA (vDNA) is synthesized. While the recruitment of TLS polymerases is important for viral genome stability, the role of PCNA is poorly understood.
