Dynamic, mitotic-like behavior of a bacterial protein required for accurate chromosome partitioning.
Open accessAbstract
The Bacillus subtilis spo0J gene is required for accurate chromosome partitioning during growth and sporulation. We have characterized the subcellular localization of Spo0J protein by immunofluorescence and, in living cells, by use of a spo0J-gfp fusion. We show that the Spo0J protein forms discrete stable foci usually located close to the cell poles. The foci replicate in concert with the initiation of new rounds of DNA replication, after which the daughter foci migrate apart inside the cell. This migration is independent of cell length extension, and presumably serves to direct the daughter chromosomes toward opposite poles of the cell, ready for division. During sporulation, the foci move to the extreme poles of the cell, where they function to position the oriC region of the chromosome ready for polar septation. These observations provide strong evidence for the existence of a dynamic, mitotic-like apparatus responsible for chromosome partitioning in bacteria.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
