摘要

In all eukaryotic cells, origins of DNA replication are characterized by the binding of the origin recognition complex (ORC). How ORC is positioned to sites where replication initiates is unknown, because metazoan ORC binds DNA without apparent sequence specificity. Thus, additional factors might be involved in ORC positioning. Our experiments indicate that a family member of the high-mobility group proteins, HMGAIa, can specifically target ORC to DNA. Coimmunoprecipitations and imaging studies demonstrate that HMGAIa interacts with different ORC subunits in vitro and in vivo. This interaction occurs mainly in AT-rich heterochro-matic regions to which HMGAIa localizes. Fusion proteins of HMGAIa and the DNA-binding domain of the viral factor EBNA1 or the prokaryotic tetracycline repressor, TetR, can recruit ORC to cognate operator sites forming functional origins of DNA replication. When HMGAIa is targeted to plasmid DNA, the prereplicative complex is assembled during G_1 and the amount of ORC correlates with the local concentration of HMGAIa. Nascent-strand abundance assays demonstrate that DNA replication initiates at or near HMGA1a-rich sites. Our experiments indicate that chromatin proteins can target ORC to DNA, suggesting they might specify origins of DNA replication in metazoan cells.
