Cell cycle-dependent organization of a bacterial centromere through multi-layered regulation of the ParABS system.

The accurate distribution of genetic material is crucial for all organisms. In most bacteria, chromosome segregation is achieved by the ParABS system, in which the ParB-bound parS sequence is actively partitioned by ParA. While this system is highly conserved, its adaptation in organisms with unique...
