BIOL230W Week 10 Replication This week we will focus on the process of replicating DNA that occurs during the S-phase of the cell cycle. We will use this discussion to better understand the important molecular tool: the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Day 1 Learning Objectives . Describe the DNA A,T,G,C content at origins of replication. . Explain how helicase 1s positioned at origins of replication. . Explain the timing of the helicase activation. . Define the components of the pre-replication complex. . Describe the timing of geminin function. . Explain the role of geminin in preventing re-replication during S-phase. . Identify a replication fork and describe how it 1s formed. . Interpret data relating to the timing and function of replication components. 01N D bW Mini-Lecture: ORC-Initiation 1. Will DNA at the origin be heterochromatic or cuchromatic? Euchromatic 2. What protein complex binds to the origin before helicase 1s loaded? Origin Recognition Complex 3. During which cell cycle stage is the full pre-replication complex bound to DNA?? Gl 4. What type of DNA modifying enzyme is required to separate the DNA strands at the origin? Helicase 5. What three components make up the Pre-Replication Complex (PRC)? Origin recognition complex, helicase loader and helicase Small Group Activity: Cdt1 Rescues Geminin Mediated Inhibition of Replication % Replication - (=] 0 10 20 30 40 nM geminin After fertilization by sperm the DNA in the newly formed zygote will undergo replication. In this experiment researchers have added different concentrations of geminin protein to the egg. This figure compares the % of cells that have successfully completed replication of their genome in S-Phase with increasing concentration of supplied geminin. Percentage of replicated chromatin was recorded after 100 min.
BIOL230W Week 10 Replication 6. How does the concentration of geminin relate to the ability of a cell to replicate its genome in this experiment? If there 1s a geminin present, the cells ability 1s lower to replicate its genome Mini-Lecture: ORC-Insuring single replication 7. When 1s the MCM double helicase activated? S Phase 8. What is the role of geminin? Blocks addition of helicase (prevents loading of helicase to pre-replication complex) 9. When is geminin active? S Phase 10. Why does geminin not block replication during S-phase? It doesn’t prevent helicase from loading the first time, only the second time to prevent too much replication, prevents reloading of MCM helicases unil next S phase 11. What would be the result if a cell lacked functioning geminin? MCM Helicase would reload to DNA and cuase too much replication Day 2 Learning Objectives Describe the different proteins involved in replication and how they function. Label ends of DNA 1n a replication fork and on primers. Describe the structure and functions of primers in replication and PCR. Identify leading vs. lagging strands. Explain where and why okazaki fragments are required for replication in cukaryotes. Compare and contrast the mechanisms for replication that occur at the leading versus the lagging strands. 7. Predict changes in function due to mutations in proteins of the replisome. SN i e Small Group Activity: Compare and Contrast Transcription and Replication 1 Transcription Replication Mini-Lecture: The Replisome 12. Which component of the replisome keeps separated strands of DNA from reannealing (coming back together)? Single Stranding DNA Binding Protein
BIOL230W Week 10 Replication 13. How many replication forks are there in 10 replication bubbles? 20 Forks 14. What type of macromolecule is the primer for DNA polymerase? RNA 15. How many primers are present on the leading strand compared to the lagging strand? Only one on the leading strand and many on the lagging strand 16. Okazaki fragments arc found on which strand (leading or lagging)? Lagging strand 17. In your own words describe processivity in relation to the action of DNA polymerase. The number of times an enzyme adds nucleotides before falling off 18. If a polymerase enzyme has increased processivity, how would you expect this to change the amount of time for replication to complete? It would decrease the amount of time replication takes to be complete 19. What 1s the final step of replication after the RNA primer has been removed and replaced with DNA? DNA ligase forms a phosphodiester bond to fix Small Group Activity: Replication Fork Origins of replication are recognized and bound by ORCs. ORCs help load helicases at the origins. DNA replication requires that the hydrogen bonds holding the strands of DNA together are broken (by helicases) so that the replication machinery can access cach of the template strands. The helical nature of DNA leads to a build-up of rotational tension as these bonds break and topoisomerase activity relieves this tension. Single-strand binding proteins help keep the template strands separated as DNA polymerase replicates the DNA. As with all polymerases (be it RNA or DNA) nucleotides are added to the 3’ end of an cxisting strand. Primases add a short stretch of RNA, which serves as the initial strand upon which DNA polymerases will clongate (this short, “starter stretch” of RNA will later be removed by a polymerase and replaced by DNA). Because DNA polymerases only add to the 3’ end, the synthesis of new strands from two template strands occurs bidirectionally with one strand being continuous (leading strand) and other being discontinuous (lagging strand). Ligases serve to connect the discontinuous lagging strand together.
