MukBEF-dependent chromosomal organization in widened Escherichia coli

MukBEF-dependent chromosomal organization in widened Escherichia coli

The bacterial chromosome is spatially organized through protein-mediated compaction, supercoiling, and cell-boundary confinement. Structural Maintenance of Chromosomes (SMC) complexes are a major class of chromosome-organizing proteins present throughout all domains of life. Here, we study the role...
