In a screen for new cell-cycle genes in Schizosaccharomyces pombe we have isolated cdc30, which is identical to orp1, a putative homolog of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae ORC1 gene. Analysis of the temperature-sensitive orp1-4 and the orp1(delta) mutants indicates that orp1 is required at the onset of S phase for an early step of DNA replication. Orp1p is found in the nucleus and is present at a constant level throughout the cell cycle. Genetic interactions occur between orp1 and cdc18 and cdc21 (an MCM homolog). Orp1p forms protein complexes with both cdc18p and cdc21p in vivo, suggesting that interactions between these proteins and ORC are important for controlling the initiation of DNA replication at the onset of S phase. The orp1 gene is also required for the control that prevents entry into mitosis in the absence of DNA replication, suggesting a role for ORC in this checkpoint pathway.

The ORC1 homolog orp1 in fission yeast plays a key role in regulating onset of S phase.
