Accurate DNA segregation is essential for faithful inheritance of genetic material. In bacteria, this process
is mainly ensured by a partition system (Par) composed of two proteins, ParA and ParB, and a centromere
site. The auto-regulation of Par operon expression is important for efficient partitioning, and is primarily
mediated by ParA for type Ia plasmid partition systems. For the plasmid F, four ParAF monomers were
proposed to ...
