Multiple regulatory mechanisms to inhibit untimely initiation of DNA replication are important for stable genome maintenance.

Genomic instability is a hallmark of human cancer cells. To prevent genomic instability, chromosomal DNA is faithfully duplicated in every cell division cycle, and eukaryotic cells have complex regulatory mechanisms to achieve this goal. Here, we show that untimely activation of replication origins...
