Cell-cycle-specific F plasmid replication: regulation by cell size control of initiation.
F plasmid replication during the Escherichia coli division cycle was investigated by using the membrane-elution technique to produce cells labeled at different times during the division cycle and scintillation counting for quantitative analysis of radioactive plasmid DNA. The F plasmid replicated, like the minichromosome, during a restricted portion of the bacterial division cycle; i.e., F plas...
متن کاملCycle-specific replication of chromosomal and F-plasmid origins.
There have been various proposals for the pattern of F-plasmid replication during the division cycle. Here we show that the recent studies of Gordon et al. (Cell 90, 1113-1121, 1997) on the duplication and segregation of green fluorescent protein (GFP) labeled replication origins of the Escherichia coli chromosome and the F plasmid during the division cycle support the proposal that the F plasm...
متن کاملCell cycle regulation and cell type-specific localization of the FtsZ division initiation protein in Caulobacter.
Many genes involved in cell division and DNA replication and their protein products have been identified in bacteria; however, little is known about the cell cycle regulation of the intracellular concentration of these proteins. It has been shown that the level of the tubulin-like GTPase FtsZ is critical for the initiation of cell division in bacteria. We show that the concentration of FtsZ var...
متن کاملCell cycle control of chromosomal DNA replication.
Accurate replication and segregation of chromosomal DNA is essential for high-fidelity transmission of genetic information from generation to generation. Eukaryotic cells typically replicate by first duplicating their chromosomes during the S phase followed by their segregation between two daughter cells during the M phase. Over recent years, advances in our understanding of this process at the...
