ORC1, a component of the Origin Recognition Complex, is necessary for the initiation of DNA replication. It is bound in complex with ORC2, ORC3, ORC4, ORC5, and ORC6. The BromoAdjacent Homology (BAH) domain of ORC1 recognizes histone 4 dimethylated at lysine 20, which is enriched at replication origins (ORI).1 Chromatin immunoprecipitation and parallel sequencing of ORC1 DNA binding sites has been used to identify the ORI sites in HeLa cells.2 In addition to BAH mediated nucleosome recognition, ORC1 contains ATPase activity which is required for loading the minichromosome maintenance helicase complex.3 ORC1 levels oscillate during the cell cycle, decreasing during S phase following formation of pre-
