Abstract excerpt
In Escherichia coli, like all organisms, DNA replication is coordinated with cell cycle progression to ensure duplication of the genome prior to cell division. Chromosome replication is initiated from the replication origin, oriC, by the DnaA protein associated with ATP. Initiations take place once per cell cycle and in synchrony at all cellular origins. DnaA also binds ADP with similar affinity as ATP and in...
