Initiation of DNA replication. Licensing of origins requires the loading of origin replication complex (ORC) proteins; Cdt1 and Cdc6 for the recruitment of helicases and other components of the replisome. The ORC proteins are subsequently removed upon entry to S-phase by proteolytic degradation mediated by the ubiquitin proteasome system thereby preventing re-replication.
