Abstract excerpt
The MCM (mini-chromosome maintenance) genes have a well established role in the initiation of DNA replication and in the elongation of replication forks in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In this study we demonstrate elevated expression of sub-telomeric and Ty retrotransposon-proximal genes in two mcm5 strains. This pattern of up-regulated genes resembles the genome-wide association of MCM proteins to chromatin that...
