The role of active mRNA-ribosome dynamics and closing constriction in daughter chromosome separation in Escherichia coli

Chathuddasie I. Amarasinghe, Mu-Hung Chang, Jaana Männik…·Jaan Männik

This study investigates how mRNA-ribosome dynamics and division septum mechanics contribute to daughter chromosome separation in E. coli, finding that while ribosome aggregation aids separation, other forces also play a role.

Effects of central dogma processes on the compaction and segregation of bacterial nucleoids

Mu-Hung Chang, Maxim O. Lavrentovich, Jan‐Michael Y. Carrillo, Jaan Männik

This study uses simulations to show that transcription and translation processes expand bacterial nucleoids and aid in chromosome segregation.
