DNA of replication foci attached to the nuclear matrix was isolated from Chinese hamster ovary cells and human HeLa cells synchronized at different stages of the G(1) and S phases of the cell cycle. The abundance of sequences from dihydrofolate reductase ori-beta and the beta-globin replicator was determined in matrix-attached DNA. The results show that matrix-attached DNA isolated from cells in late G(1) phase was enriched in origin sequences in comparison with matrix-attached DNA from early G(1) phase cells. The concentration of the early firing ori-beta in DNA attached to the matrix decreased in early S phase, while the late firing beta-globin origin remained attached until late S phase. We conclude that replication origins associate with the nuclear matrix in late G(1) phase and dissociate after initiation of DNA replication in S phase.
