ORC was first found in S. cerevisiae (where it may be called scORC), but similar complexes have now been characterized in Schizosaccharomyces pombe (spORC), Drosophila (DmORC), and Xenopus (XlORC). All of the ORC complexes bind to DNA.

A eukaryotic genome is divided into multiple replicons, and the origin in each replicon is activated once and only once in a single division cycle.

Licensing factor is necessary for initiation of replication at each origin. Licensing factor is present in the nucleus prior to replication, but is removed, inactivated, or destroyed by replication. Initiation of another replication cycle becomes possible only after licensing factor reenters the nucleus after mitosis.

Orc2-5 binds strongly; Orc6 binds weakly to ARS and has a nuclear localization signal that must be activated by the cyclin/ CDK kinase during the G1 to S transition.

ATP is required for the binding, but is not hydrolyzed until a later stage. The transcription factor ABF1 binds to the B3 element; this assists initiation by affecting chromatin structure, but it is the events that occur at the A and B1 elements that actually cause initiation

Most origins are localized in regions between genes, which suggests that it may be important for the local chromatin structure to be in a nontranscribed condition.
