Q

DNA replication steps

A
  1. Initiator proteins binds to origin (AAA, ATP) (helices bind and unwind DNA)
  2. DNA strands separated at AT rich
  3. Initiator protein recruits replication proteins

– ATP (regulates) by Orc1 needed for Orc to bind to DNA

Q

Initiation: bacteria E.coli

A

origin OriC has a 245bp sequence

STEPS:
1. bound to ATP, AAA+ domains of DnaA = make a spiral filament

  1. DnaA also recruits DnaB to the origin
  2. DnaB is a helicase, loaded onto the DNA by DnaC

A- unwinds (initiator)
B- recruit’s

Q

Type II: topoisomerase

A

STEPS:

  1. Both strands of DNA are cut and bound to tyrosine residues
  2. dsDNA segment passes through gap
  3. DNA re-ligated with some supercoiling relieved

Q

Termination occurs when?

A
  1. two different forks meet
  2. a fork reaches the end of a linear chromosome
  3. polymerase meets previously replicated strand
17
Q

Termination- Eukaryotes

A
  • linear chromo

- complex= histones

18
Q

Termination- prokaryotes

A
  • circular chromsome
  • less complex
  • @ter site
  • ter bound to tus= disassembly

makes type I1 and II topo

19
Q

both termination- prokaryotes and Eu have

A
  • three phases of replication
  • Replication catalyzed by DNA polymerases
  • Require helicases, single-strand binding proteins, primases, initiator proteins, topoisomerases, and ligases
20
Q

DNA polymerases types

A

DNA polymerase III in bacteria

DNA polymerase signa and E in eukaryotes

21
Q

DNA polymerase: structure

A

Thumb: holds elongated dsDNA
Fingers: positions incoming dNTP
Palm: connects all domains

22
Q

DNA polymerase: active site

A

carboxylate groups (2 aspartates) coordinated with 2 magnesium

Catalyzes a phosphoryl transfer reaction by Nucleophilic attack by the
• 3ʹ-OH on the α-phosphate of incoming nucleotide

Mg: One activates the 3-OH
One interacts with dNTP to stabilize the negative leaving oxygen

23
Q

DNA polymerase: Fidelity

A
  1. has precise fit in active site when base-paired with the template strand
  2. Mismatches = different shape and don’t fit in the active site as well
  3. No energy is required

•Incorrect dNTPs nevertheless sometimes added to DNA strand

24
Q

Proofreading

A
  1. Polymerase moves on to next dNTP, but slows when an incorrect addition was made
  2. Exonuclease removes incorrect nucleotide
  3. Energy is required
  4. 3ʹ end of strand returned to polymerase active site
25
Q

Reverse transcriptase

A

DNA polymerases that copy ssRNA into DNA

Encoded by viruses and by DNA elements in eukaryotes called retrotransposons

26
Q

Chromatin Replication

A
  1. Asf1 and Caf1 bind and with the sliding clamp then deposit new H3 and H4 onto DNA behind replication fork
  2. Newly synthesized H2A and H2B complete the nucleosome
  3. H3 and H4 are then deacetylated-
27
Q

The End-Replication Problem

A

Lagging strand synthesis
Cannot replicate very end of linear chromosome

  1. RNA primer removal - Leaves gap
  2. dissolution of the replication fork
28
Q

The End-Replication: solve

A

telomeres!

Simple sequence repeats on chromosome ends

TTAGGG repeats in human G-rich strand

Ends of telomeres get shorter after each round of replication

29
Q

Telomerase

A

DNA polymerase made of protein and RNA molecule

RNA template used to synthesize DNA-repeated many times from RNA template (TERT) conserved in eukaryotes

Binds to single-stranded telomere DNA (G-rich strand)

3ʹ end of the DNA base-pairs with the telomerase RNA

30
Q

Regulation of Initiation: (E. coli)

A
  1. DnaA binds at oriC when bound to ATP
  2. After initiation, Hda & sliding clamp stimulates hydrolysis of the DnaA-ATP- unwinds DNA for replication initation
  3. After initation, stimulates hydrolysis of the DNAA-ATP
  4. DnaA-ADP dissociates

This Regulatory Inactivation of DnaA (RIDA) blocks replication initiation

DARS regions- reactitive dnaA-ATP

31
Q

Regulatory Inactivation of DnaA (RIDA)

A

blocks replication initiation

32
Q

DARS regions

A

reactitive dnaA-ATP

33
Q

Regulation of Initiation: (E. coli): After chromosome replication

A
  1. DnaA binds the datA DNA region

2. After replication, two datA regions= more DnaA bound and less available to bind oriC

34
Q

Regulation of Initiation: (E. coli)After segregation of chromosomes

A

One datA again= dnaA free to bind oriC and promote initation

35
Q

Regulation of Initiation: Eukaryotes: origins

A
  • Selected in G1
  • Activated in S
  • ORC is at the center of a larger complex
  • (pre-RC) forms at the origin in G1, only be assembled in G1 and includes Cdt1, Cdc6 and MCM helicase
36
Q

Regulation of Initiation: Eukaryotes: steps

A
  1. pre-RC is phosphorylated by S phase Cdks, making it active
  2. origins to unwind, and activates the MCM helicase complex
  3. After origin firing - complex inactivated, cannot re trigger initiation until next cycle
  4. Replication must be completed before chromosome segregation occurs
