Why genes evolve faster on secondary chromosomes in bacteria. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2010
In bacterial genomes composed of more than one chromosome, one replicon is typically larger, harbors more essential genes than the others, and is considered primary.

Codon usage domains over bacterial chromosomes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2006
The geography of codon bias distributions over prokaryotic genomes and its impact upon chromosomal organization are analyzed. To this aim, we introduce a clustering method based on information theory, specifically designed to cluster genes according to ...

Linear dicentric chromosomes in bacterial natural isolates reveal common constraints for replicon fusion [PDF]

open access: yesmBio
Multipartite bacterial genome organization can confer advantages, including coordinated gene regulation and faster genome replication, but is challenging to maintain.

Resolution of Joint Molecules by RuvABC and RecG Following Cleavage of the Escherichia coli Chromosome by EcoKI [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
DNA double-strand breaks can be repaired by homologous recombination involving the formation and resolution of Holliday junctions. In Escherichia coli, the RuvABC resolvasome and the RecG branch-migration enzyme have been proposed to act in alternative ...

Markerless bacterial artificial chromosome manipulation method by red proteins of phage λ mediated homologous recombination utilizing fluorescent proteins for both positive and counter selection

open access: yesHeliyon, 2023
Manipulating viral genomes is an essential technique in reverse genetics and recombinant vaccine development. A strategy for manipulating large viral genomes involves introducing their entire genome into bacterial artificial chromosomes and employing ...

The Second Chromosome Promotes the Adaptation of the Genus Flammeovirga to Complex Environments

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2021
Approximately 10% of bacterial strains contain more than one chromosome; however, in contrast to the primary chromosomes, the mechanisms underlying the formation of the second chromosomes and the significance of their existence remain unclear. Species of

The Role of Temperate Phages in Bacterial Pathogenicity

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2023
Bacteriophages are viruses that infect bacteria and archaea and are classified as virulent or temperate phages based on their life cycles. A temperate phage, also known as a lysogenic phage, integrates its genomes into host bacterial chromosomes as a ...

A Markovian analysis of bacterial genome sequence constraints [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2013
The arrangement of nucleotides within a bacterial chromosome is influenced by numerous factors. The degeneracy of the third codon within each reading frame allows some flexibility of nucleotide selection; however, the third nucleotide in the triplet of ...
