MatP regulates the coordinated action of topoisomerase IV and MukBEF in chromosome segregation

MukBEF, the bacterial structural maintenance of chromosomes complex, is known to associate with origins of replication and topoisomerase IV. Here the authors show an association of MukBEF with MatP and replication termination regions, important for proper sister chromatid decatenation and segregatio...
