Structural Insight into the MCM double hexamer activation by Dbf4-Cdc7 kinase
The Dbf4-dependent kinase Cdc7 (DDK) is essential for eukaryotic DNA replication. Here, the authors present a series of cryo-EM structures elucidating the versatility of this kinase in exerting an ordered phosphorylation of its essential target to promote replication initiation.
