CHROMOSOME PARTITIONING IN BACTERIA
Annual Review of Genetics, 1995This review addresses chromosome partitioning in Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis. The first part deals with events associated with completion of a round of replication to an extent that yields separable chromosomes. Events more directly involved in chromosome movement are covered in the second part.

Crystal structure of the chromosome partition protein MukE homodimer
Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2022The SMC (structural maintenance of chromosomes) proteins are known to be involved in chromosome pairing or aggregation and play an important role in cell cycle and division. Different from SMC-ScpAB complex maintaining chromosome structure in most bacteria, the MukB-MukE-MukF complex is responsible for chromosome condensation in E.

Mutants defective in chromosome partitioning in E. coli
Research in Microbiology, 1991Recent experimental results suggest that replicated daughter chromosomes (nucleoids) in Escherichia coli move non-progressively and abruptly at an early stage of the D (division) period from midcell toward the cell quarter positions, which will become the centres of the daughter cells. The chromosome positioning at the quarter positions was found to be

Chromosome partition in Echerichia coli
Current Opinion in Genetics & Development, 1993The past year has seen important genetic and biochemical advances in our understanding of the mechanisms that are involved in chromosome partition into two daughter cells in Escherichia coli. Topoisomerase IV and XerCD recombinase have been shown to be required for the unlinking of replicated chromosomes. MukB, an alpha-helical coiled-coil protein, has

RecA protein of Escherichia coli and chromosome partitioning
Molecular Microbiology, 1992Summary Escherichia coli cells deficient in RecA protein frequently contain an abnormal number of chromosomes after completion of ongoing rounds of DNA replication. This suggests that RecA protein may be required for correct timing of initiation of DNA replication; however, we show here that initiation of DNA replication is properly timed in recA ...

Participation of the bacterial membrane in DNA replication and chromosome partition
Trends in Cell Biology, 1993The concept that the bacterial membrane plays an active role in the regulation of DNA replication and in segregation, or 'partition', of the bacterial chromosome at cell division was proposed in 1963. Membrane participation offered a relatively simple way to coordinate replication and partition.
