Abstract excerpt
Perturbation of origin firing in chromosome replication is a possible cause of spontaneous chromosome instability in multireplicon organisms. Here, we show that chromosomal abnormalities, including aneuploidy and chromosome rearrangement, were significantly increased in yeast diploid cells with defects in the origin recognition complex. The cell cycle of orc1-4/orc1-4 temperature-sensitive mutant was arrested at...
