Tracking of chromosome dynamics in live S treptococcus pneumoniae reveals that transcription promotes chromosome segregation

14 Jan 2014

Abstract excerpt

Chromosome segregation is an essential part of the bacterial cell cycle but is poorly characterized in oval-shaped streptococci. Using time-lapse fluorescence microscopy and total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy, we have tracked the dynamics of chromosome segregation in live cells of the human pathogen Streptococcus pneumoniae. Our observations show that the chromosome segregation process last for...
