摘要: Understanding the mechanisms that coordinate replication initiation with subsequent segregation of chromosomes is an important biological problem. Here we report two replication-control mediated by a chromosome protein, ParB2, encoded II model multichromosome bacterium, Vibrio cholerae. We find ChIP-chip assay centromere binding spreads beyond and covers inhibitory site (a 39-mer). Unexpectedly, without nucleation at centromere, ParB2 could also bind directly to related 39-mer. The 39-mers are strongest inhibitors they mediate inhibition initiator protein. thus appears promote out-competing using mechanisms: spreading into one direct other. suggest both these novel chromosomes.
