ABSTRACT
To prevent detrimental chromosome re-replication, DNA loading of a double hexamer of the minichromosome maintenance (MCM) replicative helicase is temporally separated from DNA unwinding. Upon S-phase transition in yeast, DNA unwinding is achieved in two

steps:

limited opening of the double helix and topological separation of the two DNA strands. First, Cdc45, GINS and Polε engage MCM to assemble a double CMGE with two partially separated hexamers that nucleate DNA melting. In the second step, triggered by Mcm10, two CMGEs separate completely, eject the lagging-strand template and cross paths. To understand Mcm10 during helicase activation, we used biochemical reconstitution with cryogenic electron microscopy. We found that Mcm10 splits the double CMGE by engaging the N-terminal homo-dimerization face of MCM. To eject the lagging strand, DNA unwinding is started from the N-terminal side of MCM while the hexamer channel becomes too narrow to harbor duplex DNA.
