A biomechanical mechanism for initiating DNA packaging

The bacterial chromosome is under varying levels of mechanical stress due to a high degree of crowding and dynamic protein–DNA interactions experienced within the nucleoid. DNA tension is difficult to measure in cells and its functional significance remains unclear although in vitro experiments have...
