Models of topological barriers and molecular motors of bacterial DNA
Marc Joyeux
Bacterial genomes are partitioned into kilobases long domains that are topologically independent from each other, meaning that change of DNA superhelicity in one domain does not pr…
Organization of the bacterial nucleoid by DNA-bridging proteins and globular crowders
Marc Joyeux
The genomic DNA of bacteria occupies only a fraction of the cell called the nucleoid, although it is not bounded by any membrane and would occupy a volume hundreds of times larger…
Impact of self-association on the architectural properties of bacterial nucleoid proteins
Marc Joyeux
The chromosomal DNA of bacteria is folded into a compact body called the nucleoid, which is composed essentially of DNA (80%), RNA (10%), and a number of different proteins (10%).…
Requirements for DNA-bridging proteins to act as topological barriers of the bacterial genome
Marc Joyeux, Ivan Junier
Bacterial genomes have been shown to be partitioned into several kilobases long chromosomal domains that are topologically independent from each other, meaning that change of DNA s…
Preferential localization of the bacterial nucleoid
Marc Joyeux
Prokaryotes do not make use of a nucleus membrane to segregate their genetic material from the cytoplasm, so that their nucleoid is potentially free to explore the whole volume of…
Bacterial nucleoid: Interplay of DNA demixing and supercoiling
Marc Joyeux
This work addresses the question of the interplay of DNA demixing and supercoiling in bacterial cells. Demixing of DNA from other globular macromolecules results from the overall r…
