HipA-Mediated Phosphorylation of SeqA Does not Affect Replication Initiation in Escherichia coli
The SeqA protein of Escherichia coli is required to prevent immediate re-initiation of chromosome replication from oriC. The SeqA protein is phosphorylated at the serine-36 (Ser36) residue by the HipA kinase. The role of phosphorylation was addressed by mutating the Ser36 residue to alanine, which c...
