Citation | Journal: Nat Commun / Year: 2026Title: Archaeal and eukaryotic MCM rings sequentially melt DNA for replication initiation. Authors: Sanaz Rasouli / Alexander Myasnikov / Eric J Enemark / ![]() Abstract: DNA replication initiation requires local melting of fully base-paired DNA for a helicase to gain a foothold and initiate processive DNA unwinding. In eukaryotes and archaea, the helicase engine is ...DNA replication initiation requires local melting of fully base-paired DNA for a helicase to gain a foothold and initiate processive DNA unwinding. In eukaryotes and archaea, the helicase engine is the hexameric ring minichromosome maintenance (MCM) complex. In eukaryotes, a defined biochemical sequence assembles two Cdc45-MCM-GINS (CMG) complexes that provide limited DNA unwinding as the species that immediately precedes extensive unwinding. A prior structure revealed how MCM subunits interact with this form of DNA, but the atomic progression from undistorted DNA to this melted DNA species is unknown. Here, we present a sequential DNA melting mechanism determined by snapshots of an archaeal MCM ring with DNA in varying degrees of melting. In this mechanism, successive ATP-binding at MCM ATPase sites drives sequential discrete DNA melting steps mediated a specific MCM aromatic residue. Analysis of eukaryotic structures shows loaded MCM rings principally adopt only two molecular arrangements at the ATPase: one that does not melt DNA and one tuned to melt DNA with equivalent aromatic residues, indicating a universal sequential mechanism melts DNA in archaea and eukaryotes for replication initiation. #1: Journal: Acta Crystallogr D Struct Biol / Year: 2019 Title: Macromolecular structure determination using X-rays, neutrons and electrons: recent developments in Phenix.

The overall structure-solution workflow is similar for these techniques, but nuances exist because the properties of the reduced experimental data are different. Software tools for structure determination should therefore be tailored for each method. Phenix is a comprehensive software package for macromolecular structure determination that handles data from any of these techniques. Tasks performed with Phenix include data-quality assessment, map improvement, model building, the validation/rebuilding/refinement cycle and deposition. Each tool caters to the type of experimental data. The design of Phenix emphasizes the automation of procedures, where possible, to minimize repetitive and time-consuming manual tasks, while default parameters are chosen to encourage best practice. A graphical user interface provides access to many command-line features of Phenix and streamlines the transition between programs, project tracking and re-running of previous tasks. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

This is a chimeric fusion of the Saccharolobus solfataricus MCM N-terminal domain (SsoMCM amino acids 1-269) with the Pyrococcus furious MCM ATPase domain (PfMCM amino acids 257-361/729-966). The native PfMCM has an intein (PfMCM aa 362-728) that is removed. The expression construct for this protein has genetically removed the intein.
