Genome Segregation by the Venus Flytrap Mechanism: Probing the Interaction Between the ParF ATPase and the ParG Centromere Binding Protein

The molecular events that underpin genome segregation during bacterial cytokinesis have not been fully described. The tripartite segrosome complex that is encoded by the multiresistance plasmid TP228 in Escherichia coli is a tractable model to decipher the steps that mediate accurate genome partitio...
