A new round of chromosomal replication of a temperature-sensitive initiation mutant (dnaC) of Escherichia coli was initiated synchronously by a temperature shift from a nonpermissive to a permissive condition in the presence of arabinosyl cytosine. Increased amounts of nascent DNA fragments with hom

## Abstract **Background:** During the cell cycle, the initiation of chromosomal replication is strictly controlled. In __Escherichia coli__, the initiator DnaA and the replication origin __oriC__ are major targets for this regulation. Here, we assessed the role of transcription of the __mioC__ gen
F' strains of E. coli have been isolated which are merodiploid for various chromosomal segments between 66 and 78 minutes. Strains diploid for the chromosomal DNA between the genes bgl and mtl grow slowly, have a reduced DNA/mass and an increased cell size. These properties could result if the chrom
