Abstract excerpt
The replication cycle of Escherichia coli dam mutants was analysed and compared with that of isogenic Dam+ strains. Marker frequency analyses indicated no gross difference between the strains. In the Dam- as well as in the Dam+ bacteria, initiation most likely occurs at oriC, replication forks move at a constant and invariant velocity, and termination takes place in the terC region. An analysis of replication...
