Integrins function as transmembrane linkers (integrators) between the extracellular matrix and the actin cytoskeleton.

The striking feature is that ORC remains bound at the origin through the entire cell Cycle.

The major role of ORC is to identify the origin to the Cdc6 and MCM proteins that control initiation and licensing.

In yeast, Cdc6 is a highly unstable protein, with a half-life of <5 minutes. It is synthesized during G1 and typically binds to ORC between the exit from mitosis and late G1.

In yeast, the replication helicase MCM2-7 (minichromosome maintenance) complex enters the nucleus as an inactive double hexamer during mitosis.

The presence of Cdc6 and Cdtl at the yeast origin allows the MCM proteins to bind to the complex in G I in the inactive state. Their presence is necessary forinitiation.
