DNA translocation mechanism of the MCM complex and implications for replication initiation

Eukaryotes and archaea use a heximeric ring-shaped MCM helicase to unwind the DNA template during replication. Here the authors present a crystal structure of the MCM complex from archaeon S. solfataricus bound to single-stranded DNA, and to a combination of ADP, and ATP-mimic, ADP-BeF3.
