Terminus region of the chromosome in Escherichia coli inhibits replication forks.

Abstract: In the processes involved in the termination of replication of the circular chromosome of Escherichia coli, it has been determined that the replication terminus is opposite the replication origin and is located somewhere between the trp and his loci, but the position of the replication terminus has not yet been reported with any greater precision (1-4). It is also not certain if the replication terminus is a definite locus on the chromosome or if it is simply wherever the two replication forks involved in bidi… Show more

“…It was found to terminate diametrically opposite oriC (between att80 at 28 min and attP2H at 45 min) even when the new origin was displaced by 26 min from it. Using a similar system, Kuempel et al (103,104) located the terminus between aroD and rac at 38 and 30 min, respectively, and Louarn et al (111) later reduced this interval to the 6 min between man and rac.…”

“…The E. coli chromosome replicates bidirectionally from the oriC to the terminus near the recombination sequence dif (19,20). Transposon Tn7 preferentially targets the terminus of replication (21).…”

“…The termination of DNA replication of the chromosome of Escherichia coli and those of several of its plasmids occur at unique DNA sequences called replication termini (T) (Crosa et al 1976;Kuempel et al 1977: Louarn et al 1977Kolter and Helinski 1978;Bastia et al 1981a,b;Sista et al 1989). The termination process is interesting because of its potential as a biochemical coordination point or a linkage between a round of DNA replication and subsequent cell division.…”
