Cytological and genetic analysis of the par2 locus of pB171

Prokaryotic low-copy plasmids ensure their stable inheritance through tripartite partitioning (par) loci. This study investigated the par2 locus of EPEC virulence plasmid pB171. Its ATPase ParA acts in concert with the DNA-binding partner protein ParB and the pare centromere sites to regularly distr...
