Interlinked Sister Chromosomes Arise in the Absence of Condensin during Fast Replication in B. subtilis
Condensin—an SMC-kleisin complex—is essential for efficient segregation of sister chromatids in eukaryotes [1–4]. In Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis, deletion of condensin subunits results in severe growth phenotypes and the accumulation of cells lacking nucleoids [5, 6]. In many other bacter...
