Abstract excerpt
Cyclin-dependent kinases are critical regulators of eukaryotic DNA replication. We show that the S-phase cyclin Clb5 binds stably and directly to the origin recognition complex (ORC). This interaction is mediated by an "RXL" target sequence, or "Cy" motif, in the Orc6 subunit that is recognized by the "hydrophobic patch" region on Clb5. The Clb5-Orc6 interaction requires replication initiation, and is maintained...
