AbstractTimely and accurate duplication of DNA prior to cell division is a prerequisite for propagation of the genetic material to both daughter cells. DNA synthesis initiates at discrete sites, termed replication origins, and proceeds in a bidirectional manner until all genomic DNA is replicated. Despite the fundamental nature of these events, a uniform method that identifies origins of replication in a comprehensive manner is still missing. Here, we present currently available and discuss new approaches to map replication origins in mammalian genomes.

Dna Content

The DNA content of isolated micronuclei, differentiating macronuclei (macronuclear Anlagen), and adult macronuclei of Loxodes magnus was measured cytofluorimetrically in preparations stained with a Schiff-type reagent, auramine-SO2, following hydrochloric acid hydrolysis. The DNA content of the youngest macronuclear Anlagen proved to be the same as that of telophasic micronuclei (2 c). The Anlagen thus differentiate from micronuclei which are still in G1. The quantity of DNA in the macronuclear Anlagen thereafter rises to the 4-c level, simultaneously with DNA replication in the micronuclei which immediately follows mitosis. In non-dividing animals most micronuclei are already in G2. Adult macronuclei here contain on average 1.5 times more DNA than the micronuclei; their DNA content is about 5–6 c (in some individual nuclei, up to 10 c). These data are consistent with autoradiographic evidence indicating a weak DNA synthesis in the macronuclei of Loxodes and make likely the existence of partial DNA replication (e.g. gene amplification) in the macronuclei. The DNA content of adult macronuclei isolated from dividing animals proved to be significantly smaller than that of macronuclei isolated from non-dividing specimens of the same clone. In 3 clones studied, the former value amounted on average to 71–79, 78 and 95% of the latter, respectively. This drop of DNA content cannot be explained by ‘dilution’ of the old macronuclei with newly formed ones. The quantity of DNA in adult macronuclei thus seems to undergo cyclical changes correlated with cytokinesis, despite the fact that, in Loxodes magnus, the macronuclei themselves never divide and are simply segregated at every cell division. The macronuclei of Loxodes can be termed paradiploid or hyperdiploid.

New Protein

Using monodispersed cell suspensions, interferon preparations were shown to have both a lethal and a growth-depression effect in the same concentration range as that required for antiviral activity. In addition, synchronized cells treated with interferon respond by delaying their normal uptake of thymidine during S phase until after a period during which new protein is synthesized. Puromycin added during this period prevents both the synthesis of this protein and the subsequent synthesis of DNA.

Fluorescence cytophotometry was used to study nuclear DNA content and synthesis patterns during meiosis, fertilization and macronuclear development in the ciliated protozoon, Tetrahymena pyriformis, syngen 1. It was found that cells entered conjugation with a G1 (45C) macronucleus and a G2 (4C) micronucleus. During meiosis the micronucleus was reduced to 4 haploid nuclei, each with a 1C amount of DNA; each meiotic product then replicated to 2C, but only the nucleus next to the attachment membrane in each conjugant divided to form the two 1C gametic nuclei. The gametic nuclei replicated to 2C prior to fertilization; hence there was no S-period in the 4C fertilization nucleus (synkaryon). The first postzygotic division products immediately entered an S-period to become 4C, and at the second postzygotic division, each of the two 4C nuclei in each conjugant divided to form one 2C micronucleus and one 2C macronuclear Anlage. The macronuclear Anlagen began DNA synthesis immediately and were about 8C at the completion of conjugation; the micronuclei did not undergo rapid DNA doubling and measured between 2C and 3C when the conjugants separated. The old macronucleus did not participate in any S-period during conjugation and began to decompose after the second postzygotic division; it contained an average of 24C at the end of conjugation. From this sequence of nuclear divisions a pattern emerges that, unless a general cytoplasmic signal for DNA synthesis is suppressed, DNA synthesis always occurs in micronuclear division products immediately following separation of sister chromatids. Nuclear development continued in the first two cell cycles after conjugation. In exconjugants (the first cycle), macronuclear Anlagen underwent two rounds of DNA synthesis to become 32C and both micronuclei also underwent DNA synthesis. However, prior to the first cell division, one micronucleus and the old macronucleus completely disintegrated, and at the first cell division the remaining 4C micronucleus divided and one macronuclear Anlage was distributed to each resulting caryonide. At the end of the second cell cycle, the dividing macronucleus of each caryonide contained about 128C. These results relate to the question of ploidy of macronuclear subunits. It is argued that the G1 macronucleus contains 22 or 23 diploid subunits, each subunit being a copy of the diploid micronuclear genome. It is suggested that unequal macronuclear division relates to the question of subunit ploidy by playing a role in the phenomenon of macronuclear assortment.
