Abstract excerpt
Distribution of plasmid molecules to the two daughter cells at cell division is of major importance for their stable inheritance. Several mechanisms that control equipartitioning of low-copy-number plasmids have been described in molecular terms. However, no homologous or analogous systems have been identified for intermediate or high-copy-number plasmids, including rolling circle replicating (RCR) plasmids. It...
