Abstract excerpt
A genetic link of the carbon metabolism and DNA replication was recently reported for the representative of Gram-negative bacteria, Escherichia coli. Our studies showed that the viability of thermosensitive replication mutants at high temperature can be improved or fully recovered by deleting certain genes of central carbon metabolism (CCM). In order to improve our understanding of this phenomenon, in this study...
