ParAB Partition Dynamics in Firmicutes: Nucleoid Bound ParA Captures and Tethers ParB-Plasmid Complexes

In Firmicutes, small homodimeric ParA-like (δ(2)) and ParB-like (ω(2)) proteins, in concert with cis-acting plasmid-borne parS and the host chromosome, secure stable plasmid inheritance in a growing bacterial population. This study shows that (ω:YFP)(2) binding to parS facilitates plasmid clustering...
