Rules and Exceptions: The Role of Chromosomal ParB in DNA Segregation and Other Cellular Processes [PDF]
, 2020 : The segregation of newly replicated chromosomes in bacterial cells is a highly coordinated spatiotemporal process. In the majority of bacterial species, a tripartite ParAB-parS system, composed of an ATPase (ParA), a DNA-binding protein (ParB), and its

The fractal globule as a model of chromatin architecture in the cell [PDF]
, 2011 The fractal globule is a compact polymer state that emerges during polymer condensation as a result of topological constraints which prevent one region of the chain from passing across another one.

Bacterial chromosome organization by condensins : functional analysis of MukBEF in E.coli
, 2023 La condensation des chromosomes et leur ségrégation sont deux processus essentiels à la transmission du matériel génétique chez tous les êtres vivants. En effet, les chromosomes sont constitués d'une molécule d'ADN et de plusieurs familles de protéines qui assurent plusieurs fonctions liées à l'ADN.

Structural Studies of DNA-bound Condensin [PDF]
Eukaryotic chromosomes undergo massive three-dimensional rearrangements over the course of the cell cycle. Prior to cell division, chromosomes are condensed into rod-shaped structures which ensures the faithful transmission of the genetic material into ...

Interactions of Smc-ScpAB with the Bacillus subtilis chromosome [PDF]
, 2016 Every living organism relies on cell division for survival, which requires proper chromosomal organization and segregation. The SMC family of proteins is highly conserved in all branches of life and is known to play an important role in these processes ...

The role and dynamics of DNA catenation in sister chromatid cohesion [PDF]
Cohesion is the fundamental activity that tethers eukaryotic sister chromatids from S phase until mitosis. The Structural Maintenance of Chromosomes (SMC) complex, known as cohesin, mediates this process by co-entrapping sister chromatids within its ring-
