Relationship between ftsZ gene expression and chromosome replication in Escherichia coli.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Oct 1994

Zhou P, Helmstetter C E

Abstract excerpt

Transcriptional levels within the ftsQAZ region of the Escherichia coli chromosome were correlated with chromosome replication and the division cycle. The transcripts were measured either in synchronous cultures generated by the baby machine technique or in dnaC2(Ts) mutants that had been aligned...
