Grimwade JE, Rozgaja TA, Gupta R, Dyson K, Rao P, Leonard AC. Origin recognition is the predominant role for DnaA-ATP in initiation of chromosome replication. Nucleic Acids Res 2019; 46:6140-6151.

Abstract
In all cells, initiation of chromosome replication depends on the activity of AAA+ initiator proteins that form complexes with replication origin DNA. In bacteria, the conserved, adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-regulated initiator protein, DnaA, forms a complex with the origin, oriC, that mediates DNA strand separation and recruitment of replication machinery. Complex assembly and origin activation requires DnaA-ATP, which differs from DnaA-ADP in its ability to cooperatively bind specific low affinity sites and also to oligomerize into helical filaments. The degree to which each of these activities contributes to the DnaA-ATP requirement for initiation is not known. In this study, we compared the DnaA-ATP dependence of initiation from wild-type Escherichia coli oriC and a synthetic origin (oriCallADP), whose multiple low affinity DnaA sites bind DnaA-ATP and DnaA-ADP similarly. OriCallADP was fully occupied and unwound by DnaA-ADP in vitro, and, in vivo, oriCallADP suppressed lethality of DnaA mutants defective in ATP binding and ATP-specific oligomerization. However, loss of preferential DnaA-ATP binding caused over-initiation and increased sensitivity to replicative stress. The findings indicate both DnaA-ATP and DnaA-ADP can perform most of the mechanical functions needed for origin activation, and suggest that a key reason for ATP-regulation of DnaA is to control replication initiation frequency.

Abstract
Understanding the plasticity of genomes has been greatly aided by assays for recombination, repair and mutagenesis. These assays have been developed in microbial systems that provide the advantages of genetic and molecular reporters that can readily be manipulated. Cellular assays comprise genetic, molecular, and cytological reporters. The assays are powerful tools but each comes with its particular advantages and limitations. Here the most commonly used assays are reviewed, discussed, and presented as the guidelines for future studies.

Abstract
Bacterial proliferation depends on the cells' capability to proceed through consecutive rounds of the cell cycle. The cell cycle consists of a series of events during which cells grow, copy their genome, partition the duplicated DNA into different cell halves and, ultimately, divide to produce two newly formed daughter cells. Cell cycle control is of the utmost importance to maintain the correct order of events and safeguard the integrity of the cell and its genomic information. This review covers insights into the regulation of individual key cell cycle events in Escherichia coli. The control of initiation of DNA replication, chromosome segregation and cell division is discussed. Furthermore, we highlight connections between these processes. Although detailed mechanistic insight into these connections is largely still emerging, it is clear that the different processes of the bacterial cell cycle are coordinated to one another. This careful coordination of events ensures that every daughter cell ends up with one complete and intact copy of the genome, which is vital for bacterial survival.

Abstract
Cell size of bacteria M is related to 3 temporal parameters: chromosome replication time C, period from replication-termination to subsequent division D, and doubling time τ. Steady-state, bacillary cells grow exponentially by extending length L only, but their constant width W is larger at shorter τ's or longer C's, in proportion to the number of chromosome replication positions n (= C/τ), at least in Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium. Extending C by thymine limitation of fast-growing thyA mutants result in continuous increase of M, associated with rising W, up to a limit before branching. A set of such puzzling observations is qualitatively consistent with the view that the actual cell mass (or volume) at the time of replication-initiation Mi (or Vi), usually relatively constant in growth at varying τ's, rises with time under thymine limitation of fast-growing, thymine-requiring E. coli strains. The hypothesis will be tested that presumes existence of a minimal distance lmin between successive moving replisomes, translated into the time needed for a replisome to reach lmin before a new replication-initiation at oriC is allowed, termed Eclipse E. Preliminary analysis of currently available data is inconsistent with a constant E under all conditions, hence other explanations and ways to test them are proposed in an attempt to elucidate these and other results. The complex hypothesis takes into account much of what is currently known about Bacterial Physiology: the relationships between cell dimensions, growth and cycle parameters, particularly nucleoid structure, replication and position, and the mode of peptidoglycan biosynthesis. Further experiments are mentioned that are necessary to test the discussed ideas and hypotheses.
