Topoisomerase I (TopA) Is Recruited to ParB Complexes and Is Required for Proper Chromosome Organization during Streptomyces coelicolor Sporulation
3 Aug 2013
Abstract excerpt
Streptomyces species are bacteria that resemble filamentous fungi in their hyphal mode of growth and sporulation. In Streptomyces coelicolor, the conversion of multigenomic aerial hyphae into chains of unigenomic spores requires synchronized septation accompanied by segregation of tens of chromosomes into prespore compartments. The chromosome segregation is dependent on ParB protein, which assembles into an array...
