The lectin, wheat germ agglutinin (WGA), has previously been shown to prevent transport into the cell nucleus. This paper shows that WGA also inhibits nuclear DNA replication, under the same conditions that prevent transport. Although WGA eliminates sperm nuclear DNA replication in a cell-free extract of Xenopus eggs, DNA synthesis on a single-stranded template proceeds normally. Inhibition of nuclear DNA replication is partially reversed by addition of N-acetylglucosamine, and completely reversed by triacetylchitotriose. Sensitivity to inhibition by WGA is greatest during the nuclear assembly phase, and nuclear formation on sperm chromatin is blocked. DNA replication in preformed nuclear templates is also sensitive to WGA inhibition. I propose that WGA blocks DNA replication by preventing nuclear transport. The data presented here also indicate that, under certain circumstances, the elongation stage of DNA replication does not proceed in the absence of an intact nuclear envelope. The roles of the nuclear envelope and active nuclear transport in DNA replication are discussed.

Genomic Regions

Multiple epigenetic pathways underlie the temporal order of DNA replication (replication timing) in the contexts of development and disease. DNA methylation by DNA methyltransferases (Dnmts) and downstream chromatin reorganization and transcriptional changes are thought to impact DNA replication, yet this remains to be comprehensively tested. Using cell-based and genome-wide approaches to measure replication timing, we identified a number of genomic regions undergoing subtle but reproducible replication timing changes in various Dnmt-mutant mouse embryonic stem (ES) cell lines that included a cell line with a drug-inducible Dnmt3a2 expression system. Replication timing within pericentromeric heterochromatin (PH) was shown to be correlated with redistribution of H3K27me3 induced by DNA hypomethylation: Later replicating PH coincided with H3K27me3-enriched regions. In contrast, this relationship with H3K27me3 was not evident within chromosomal arm regions undergoing either early-to-late (EtoL) or late-to-early (LtoE) switching of replication timing upon loss of the Dnmts. Interestingly, Dnmt-sensitive transcriptional up- and downregulation frequently coincided with earlier and later shifts in replication timing of the chromosomal arm regions, respectively. Our study revealed the previously unrecognized complex and diverse effects of the Dnmts loss on the mammalian DNA replication landscape.

Genome stability requires tight regulation of DNA replication to ensure that the entire genome of the cell is duplicated once and only once per cell cycle. In mammalian cells, origin activation is controlled in space and time by a cell-specific and robust program called replication timing. About 100,000 potential replication origins form on the chromatin in the gap 1 (G1) phase but only 20–30% of them are active during the DNA replication of a given cell in the synthesis (S) phase. When the progress of replication forks is slowed by exogenous or endogenous impediments, the cell must activate some of the inactive or “dormant” origins to complete replication on time. Thus, the many origins that may be activated are probably key to protect the genome against replication stress. This review aims to discuss the role of these dormant origins as safeguards of the human genome during replicative stress.
