Alternating Dynamics of <italic toggle="yes">oriC</italic>, SMC, and MksBEF in Segregation of <named-content content-type="genus-species">Pseudomonas aeruginosa</named-content> Chromosome

ABSTRACT Condensins are essential for global chromosome organization in diverse bacteria. Atypically, the Pseudomonas aeruginosa chromosome encodes condensins from two superfamilies, SMC-ScpAB and MksBEF. Here, we report that the two proteins play specialized roles in chromosome packing and segregat...
