Modularity of the Bacterial Cell Cycle Enables Independent Spatial and Temporal Control of DNA Replication

Background: Complex regulatory circuits in biology are often built of simpler subcircuits or modules. In most cases, the functional consequences and evolutionary origins of modularity remain poorly defined. Results: Here, by combining single-cell microscopy with genetic approaches, we demonstrate th...
