DNA replication initiates at many sites in eukaryotic chromosomes. It has been difficult to isolate such replication origins, but a family of sequences from the yeast genome have properties which suggest that they may serve this function. The identification of these sequences together with sophisticated methods of genetic analysis, make yeast a useful organism for the study of eukaryotic DNA replication.
