Spatial rearrangement of the Streptomyces venezuelae linear chromosome during sporogenic development

M. J. Szafran, T. Malecki, A. Strzalka, K. Pawlikiewicz, J. Dulawa, A. Zarek, A. Kois-Ostrowska, K. Findlay, T. B. K. Le, D. Jakimowicz

This study shows that during sporulation in Streptomyces venezuelae, chromosome arms transition from spatial separation to close alignment, mediated by ParB, SMC, and HupS.
