Saccharomyces cerevisiae Cdc7/Dbf4 protein kinase, which regulates the initiation of chromosomal DNA replication, was expressed and purified from insect cells. It was found that the purified Cdc:7/Dbf4 phosphorylates Mcm2, which is one of Mcm2-7 complex. Furthermore, its phosphorylation sites were determined. Xenopus homologs of S. cerevisiae Cdc7/Dbf4 protein Kinase and Mcm10 were identified and their corresponding genes were cloned. it was found that Xenopus Cdc7/Dbf4.protein kinase and Mcm10 are required for the initiation of chromosomal DNA replication as in S. cerevisiae.S. cerevisiae Rad53p, which involved in both DNA-damage-and S-phase checkpoint regulation, was purified and one of the substrates was identified to be Dbf4/Cdc7 protein kinase. It was found that Rad53p directly intercts with Cdc7/Dbf4 and phosphorylates Dbf4. Phosphorylation of Cdc7/Dbf4 complex with Rad53p inactivates Cdc7/Dbf4 protein kinase activity.

酿酒酵母 Cdc7/Dbf4 蛋白激酶可调节染色体 DNA 复制的起始，从昆虫细胞中表达并纯化。发现纯化的Cdc:7/Dbf4磷酸化Mcm2，Mcm2是Mcm2-7复合物之一。此外，还确定了其磷酸化位点。鉴定了酿酒酵母 Cdc7/Dbf4 蛋白激酶和 Mcm10 的爪蟾同源物，并克隆了它们相应的基因。结果发现，非洲爪蟾 Cdc7/Dbf4.蛋白激酶和 Mcm10 是启动染色体 DNA 复制所必需的，如酿酒酵母 (S. cerevisiae.S.) 中那样。酿酒酵母 Rad53p 参与 DNA 损伤和 S 期检查点调节，经过纯化，其中一种底物被鉴定为 Dbf4/Cdc7 蛋白激酶。研究发现Rad53p直接与Cdc7/Dbf4相互作用并使Dbf4磷酸化。 Cdc7/Dbf4 复合物与 Rad53p 的磷酸化会使 Cdc7/Dbf4 蛋白激酶活性失活。
