Ureaplasma parvum SMC-ScpAB complex is capable of loop extrusion and demonstrates properties that distinguish it from Bacillus subtilis homologue

This study compares loop extrusion properties of Ureaplasma parvum and Bacillus subtilis Smc-ScpAB complexes, finding U. parvum can extrude loops while B. subtilis cannot.

Mycoplasma gallisepticum FtsZ demonstrates properties that distinguish it from other known homologs

This study investigates the FtsZ protein in Mycoplasma gallisepticum, showing it localizes polarly rather than mid-cell and can polymerize, supporting its role in cell division despite differences from other homologs.

Interactions of the Escherichia coli SMC-like RecN protein with different forms of DNA revealed at the single-molecule level using optical tweezers

This study uses optical tweezers to investigate RecN's interactions with ssDNA and dsDNA, revealing its predominant ssDNA binding and weak dsDNA binding that forms DNA loop-like structures.

Properties of the Ureaplasma parvum SMC protein related to its interaction with DNA

This study investigates the properties of Ureaplasma parvum SMC ATPase, revealing its ability to compact DNA without ATP, distinct from its Bacillus subtilis homologue.

Features of the DNA Escherichia coli RecN interaction revealed by fluorescence microscopy and single-molecule methods

This study uses fluorescence microscopy and single-molecule techniques to investigate RecN's localization and DNA-binding properties in Escherichia coli.

A new insight into RecA filament regulation by RecX from the analysis of conformation-specific interactions

This study investigates how RecX regulates RecA-ssDNA filament conformational states in E. coli, revealing that RecX binds the inactive state and inhibits transition to the active state.
