A helicase-tethered ORC flip enables bidirectional helicase loading

Replication origins are licensed by loading two Mcm2-7 helicases around DNA in a head-to-head conformation poised to initiate bidirectional replication. This process requires origin–recognition complex (ORC), Cdc6, and Cdt1. Although different Cdc6 and Cdt1 molecules load each helicase, whether two...
