Abstract excerpt
The outer membrane of Escherichia coli binds the origin of DNA replication (oriC) only when it is hemimethylated. We report here the results of a footprinting analysis with the outer membrane which demonstrate that its interaction with oriC occurs mainly at the left moiety of the minimal oriC, wh...
