Spatial organization of a replicating bacterial chromosome.
Emerging evidence indicates that the global organization of the bacterial chromosome is defined by its physical map. This architectural understanding has been gained mainly by observing the localization and dynamics of specific chromosomal loci. However, the spatial and temporal organization of the entire mass of newly synthesized DNA remains elusive. To visualize replicated DNA within living c...
متن کاملBacterial chromosome organization and segregation.
Bacterial chromosomes are generally approximately 1000 times longer than the cells in which they reside, and concurrent replication, segregation, and transcription/translation of this crowded mass of DNA poses a challenging organizational problem. Recent advances in cell-imaging technology with subdiffraction resolution have revealed that the bacterial nucleoid is reliably oriented and highly o...
متن کاملSpatial organization of bacterial chromosomes.
Bacterial chromosomes are organized in stereotypical patterns that are faithfully and robustly regenerated in daughter cells. Two distinct spatial patterns were described almost a decade ago in our most tractable model organisms. In recent years, analysis of chromosome organization in a larger and more diverse set of bacteria and a deeper characterization of chromosome dynamics in the original ...
متن کاملHigh-resolution mapping of the spatial organization of a bacterial chromosome.
Chromosomes must be highly compacted and organized within cells, but how this is achieved in vivo remains poorly understood. We report the use of chromosome conformation capture coupled with deep sequencing (Hi-C) to map the structure of bacterial chromosomes. Analysis of Hi-C data and polymer modeling indicates that the Caulobacter crescentus chromosome consists of multiple, largely independen...
