Abstract excerpt

Deinococcus radiodurans contains a highly condensed nucleoid that remains to be unaltered following the exposure to high doses of gamma-irradiation. Proteins belonging to the structural maintenance of chromosome protein (SMC) family are present in all organisms and were shown to be involved in chromosome condensation, pairing, and/or segregation. Here, we have inactivated the smc gene in the radioresistant...
