The Escherichia coli SMC Complex, MukBEF, Shapes Nucleoid Organization Independently of DNA Replication [PDF]
ABSTRACTSMC (structuralmaintenance ofchromosomes) complexes function ubiquitously in organizing and maintaining chromosomes. Functional fluorescent derivatives of theEscherichia coliSMC complex, MukBEF, form foci that associate with the replication origin region (ori).

MukBEF on the march: taking over chromosome organization in bacteria? [PDF]
SummarySmc–ScpAB complexes, also called bacterial condensin, are comprised of highly conserved proteins present in a wide variety of bacteria and archaea. They facilitate bacterial chromosome segregation probably by organizing and/or compacting nascent sister chromosomes.

Dynamic architecture of the Escherichia coli structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC) complex, MukBEF [PDF]
Abstract Ubiquitous Structural Maintenance of Chromosomes (SMC) complexes use a proteinaceous ring-shaped architecture to organize and individualize chromosomes, thereby facilitating chromosome segregation. They utilize cycles of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) binding and hydrolysis to transport themselves rapidly with respect to DNA, a

Mechanics of DNA bridging by bacterial condensin MukBEF in vitro and in singulo [PDF]
Structural maintenance of chromosome (SMC) proteins comprise the core of several specialized complexes that stabilize the global architecture of the chromosomes by dynamically linking distant DNA fragments. This reaction however remains poorly understood giving rise to numerous proposed mechanisms of the proteins.

Chromosome Condensation in the Absence of the Non-SMC Subunits of MukBEF [PDF]
ABSTRACTMukBEF is a bacterial SMC (structural maintenance of chromosome) complex required for chromosome partitioning inEscherichia coli. We report that overproduction of MukBEF results in marked chromosome condensation. This condensation is rapid and precedes the effects of overproduction on macromolecular synthesis.

The Bacterial Condensin MukBEF Compacts DNA into a Repetitive, Stable Structure
Science, 2004Condensins are conserved proteins containing SMC (structural maintenance of chromosomes) moieties that organize and compact chromosomes in an unknown mechanism essential for faithful chromosome partitioning. We show that MukBEF, the condensin in Escherichia coli , cooperatively compacts a single DNA molecule into a ...

The complex of MukF, MukE, and MukB proteins participates in organization of sister chromosomes and partitioning into both daughter cells in Escherichia coli. We purified the MukB homodimer and the MukBEF complex and analyzed them by electron microscopy to compare both structures.
