Abstract excerpt
The kinetics of initiation of chromosome replication after induction of DnaA protein synthesis was studied in a dnaA(nuII) rnh mutant of Escherichia coli. DnaA protein synthesis was induced to different extents using the wild-type dnaA gene controlled by a lac promoter. Initiation of chromosome replication from oriC, measured as an increase in origin to terminus ratio, took place at different times after addition...
