Fig. 4. Docking of the Orc6 N-terminal domain onto the ORC·Cdc6 ring is incompatible with MO and OCCM formation.

ac Overlapping binding sites of Orc6-CBN with Mcm2-7 in the Mcm2-7·ORC complex (MO, PDB 6rqc57) and with Orc1 and Cdc6 in ScORC·DNA·Cdc6. a Orc6-CBN binds to Mcm2 and Mcm6 in the MO complex. Mcm2, Mcm6, and Orc6 are depicted as colored cartoon, while other Mcm2-7 subunits are shown in light gray as transparent cartoon. Other ORC subunits are omitted for clarity. b Structural alignment of Orc6-CBN in the MO complex with this domain in ScORC·DNA·Cdc6. The root mean square deviation (RMSD) of atomic coordinates is listed. c Zoomed view of boxed region in a with Orc6-CBN from ScORC·DNA·Cdc6 (shown as surface) superposed onto the corresponding domain in the MO complex (shown as cartoon). The Orc6-CBN surface involved in interactions with Cdc6 and Orc1 in ScORC·DNA·Cdc6 is colored purple. d and e Orc6-CBN in ScORC·DNA·Cdc6 occupies a similar position as the winged-helix domain (WH) of Mcm7 in the OCCM complex. d Superposition of ScORC·DNA·Cdc6 (this study) and OCCM (PDB 5v8f8) by structural alignment of Orc1 in both complexes. Mcm2-7 and Cdt1 are represented as surface except for the Mcm2-7 WH domains (in blue cartoon), while ORC and Cdc6 are depicted as cartoon. e Zoomed view of boxed region from d highlights that the Mcm7-WH domain (as positioned in the OCCM complex) would clash with Orc6-CBN that is docked onto the ORC·Cdc6 ring. Mcm7-WH is rendered as blue surface, while other OCCM regions are omitted for clarity. ScORC·DNA·Cdc6 (this study) is shown as cartoon with Orc1, Orc6, and Cdc6 colored.
