Abstract
A tight coordination between transcription and DNA replication is essential to maintain genome stability. Both excessive transcription and upregulated initiation of DNA replication result in transcription replication conflicts and DNA damage. Interestingly, many replication origins are co-localized with transcription start sites, indicating that transcription may play a role in the initiation of DNA replication. In this review we cover various aspects of replication regulation by transcription - from location of replication origins to various steps of replication initiation, replication timing and transcription-replication conflicts.
期刊介绍:
DNA Repair provides a forum for the comprehensive coverage of DNA repair and cellular responses to DNA damage. The journal publishes original observations on genetic, cellular, biochemical, structural and molecular aspects of DNA repair, mutagenesis, cell cycle regulation, apoptosis and other biological responses in cells exposed to genomic insult, as well as their relationship to human disease.
DNA Repair publishes full-length research articles, brief reports on research, and reviews. The journal welcomes articles describing databases, methods and new technologies supporting research on DNA repair and responses to DNA damage. Letters to the Editor, hot topics and classics in DNA repair, historical reflections, book reviews and meeting reports also will be considered for publication.
