Organization of the bacterial chromosome [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiological Reviews, 1990
Recent progress in studies on the bacterial chromosome is summarized. Although the greatest amount of information comes from studies on Escherichia coli, reports on studies of many other bacteria are also included. A compilation of the sizes of chromosomal DNAs as determined by pulsed-field electrophoresis is given, as well as a discussion of factors ...

Bacterial Chromosome Organization and Segregation [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Cell and Developmental Biology, 2015
If fully stretched out, a typical bacterial chromosome would be nearly 1 mm long, approximately 1,000 times the length of a cell. Not only must cells massively compact their genetic material, but they must also organize their DNA in a manner that is compatible with a range of cellular processes, including DNA replication, DNA repair, homologous ...

Structure and Dynamics of the Bacterial Chromosome [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2009
Despite the great deal of studies on bacteria, and especially E coli, our understanding of the spatio-temporal organization of bacterial chromosomes is minimal, largely because their dynamics have been difficult to observe directly. Even more remarkable is bacteria's ability to control the topology of the 1.5 mm-long DNA in the confined environment of ...

Bacterial chromosome segregation

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience, 2012
Dividing cells have mechanisms to ensure that their genomes are faithfully segregated into daughter cells. In bacteria, the description of these mechanisms has been considerably improved in the recent years. This review focuses on the different aspects of bacterial chromosome segregation that can be understood thanks to the studies performed with model

Bacterial chromosome segregation [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology, 2001
Recent years have witnessed a resurgence of interest in how the bacterial chromosome is organized and how newly replicated chromosomes are faithfully segregated into daughter cells on cell division. In the past, the problem with studying bacterial chromosomes was their lack of any obvious morphology, combined with the lack of ability to readily ...

Spatial organization of bacterial chromosomes [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Microbiology, 2014
Bacterial chromosomes are organized in stereotypical patterns that are faithfully and robustly regenerated in daughter cells. Two distinct spatial patterns were described almost a decade ago in our most tractable model organisms. In recent years, analysis of chromosome organization in a larger and more diverse set of bacteria and a deeper ...

Bacterial chromosome segregation.

open access: yesActa Biochimica Polonica, 2005
In most bacteria two vital processes of the cell cycle: DNA replication and chromosome segregation overlap temporally. The action of replication machinery in a fixed location in the cell leads to the duplication of oriC regions, their rapid separation to the opposite halves of the cell and the duplicated chromosomes gradually moving to the same ...

Bacterial chromosome extraction and isolation [PDF]

open access: yesLab on a Chip, 2002
We have used diffusive mixing and dielectrophoretic trapping to lyse Escherichia coli cells in a microfabricated environment and trap the E. coli chromosome. We characterize the conditions needed for efficient lysis of the cells, and conditions needed for the dielectrophoretic trapping of the chromatin without the trapping of cytoplasmic proteins.
