Bacterial cells require DNA segregation machinery to properly distribute a genome to both daughter cells upon division.

A core protein of this system - partition protein B (ParB) - regulates chromosome organization and chromosome segregation during the bacterial cell cycle. Over the past decades, research has greatly advanced our knowledge of the ParABS system. However, many intricate details ...[more]
