A CTP-dependent gating mechanism enables ParB spreading on DNA
Proper chromosome segregation is essential in all living organisms.The ParA-ParB-parS system is widely employed for chromosome segregation in bacteria.Previously, we showed that Caulobacter crescentus ParB requires cytidine triphosphate to escape the nucleation site parS and spread by sliding TEA TREE PURE-CASTILE SOAP to the neighboring DNA (Jalal
