It's fascinating that bacteria use their DNA as a cytoskeleton with seemingly all of the same abilities as eukaryotic cells. I'm curious if there are cell behaviors that are chemically organized at smaller spatial scales by the DNA.
+Does itMatter One of the ParB-parS complexes is attached to the old pole by a semi-understood complex of proteins. The mechanism by which the second partition complex avoids also being tethered to the old pole is not known as far as I'm aware, but I would assume it is simply stoichiometric (i.e. there is only "space" for one partition complex to bind). I make this assumption because I know that the second partition complex actually is also tethered (by several proteins, including TipN) once it reaches the new pole.
Fascinating. I really love these 'next gen' simulation animations.
These are deep, fundamental questions.
Thank you for your lectures! Lectures are really helpful for exam preparation on the same topic!
Hi, is there a video on ParMRC (type II)? or could someone explain it to me?

Why Should only one partition complex diffuse?

This is helpful! Especially the simulation
Thanks!!!! it was a very helpful and clear video!!
Helpful video! thank you so much!
awesome video!!!!
very good, i have a huge crush now.
