The ParMRC system: molecular mechanisms of plasmid segregation by actin-like filaments.
The ParMRC plasmid partitioning apparatus is one of the best characterized systems for bacterial DNA segregation. Bundles of actin-like filaments are used to push plasmids to opposite poles of the cell, whereupon they are stably inherited on cell division. This plasmid-encoded system comprises just...
