Effects of replication termination mutants on chromosome partitioning in Bacillus subtilis.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 2 Jan 2001

Lemon K P, Kurtser I, Grossman A D

Abstract excerpt

Many circular genomes have replication termination systems, yet disruption of these systems does not cause an obvious defect in growth or viability. We have found that the replication termination system of Bacillus subtilis contributes to accurate chromosome partitioning. Partitioning of the terminus region requires that chromosome dimers, that have formed as a result of RecA-mediated homologous recombination, be...
