High impact information on ORC3

  • We demonstrate through both immunoprecipitation and two-hybrid assays that a domain comprising the first 296 aa of Dbf4p interacts with Orc2p and Orc3p subunits of the origin recognition complex (ORC) [1].
  • In addition, the OAF1 gene product tagged with the hemagglutinin antigen epitope binds to a DNA affinity column containing covalently linked tandem repeats of an essential origin element [2].
  • Murine ORC3 protein contains a putative nuclear localization signal and a non-basic helix-loop-helix motif [3].
  • Transcription of ORC3 is not suppressed in mouse NIH3T3 fibroblasts made quiescent by serum starvation [3].
  • The transcription level of the ORC3 gene is constantly high in all phases of the cell cycle [3].
