Where and When Bacterial Chromosome Replication Starts: A Single Cell Perspective

Where and When Bacterial Chromosome Replication Starts: A Single Cell Perspective

Bacterial chromosomes have a single, unique replication origin (named oriC), from which DNA synthesis starts. This study describes methods of visualizing oriC regions and the chromosome replication in single living bacterial cells in real-time. This review also discusses the impact of live cell imag...
