Abstract excerpt
Growth inhibition of the dnaA(Cs) mutant, which overinitiates chromosome replication, was shown to be dependent upon the nucleoid protein H-NS. [3H]thymine incorporation experiments indicated that the absence of H-NS inhibited overreplication by the dnaA(Cs) mutant. In addition, the temperature-s...
