  2. ncbi The Escherichia coli DNA translocase FtsK
    David J Sherratt
    Department of Biochemistry, University of Oxford, Oxford OX1 3QU, UK
    Biochem Soc Trans 38:395-8. 2010
    ..In the present paper, the properties in vivo and in vitro of FtsK and its relatives are discussed in relation to the biological functions of these remarkable enzymes...
  3. ncbi Separating speed and ability to displace roadblocks during DNA translocation by FtsK
    Estelle Crozat
    Department of Biochemistry, University of Oxford, Oxford, UK
    EMBO J 29:1423-33. 2010
    ..This separation of translocation velocity and ability to displace roadblocks is more consistent with a sequential escort mechanism than stochastic, hand-off, or concerted mechanisms...
  4. ncbi FtsK DNA translocase: the fast motor that knows where it's going
    Estelle Crozat
    Department of Biochemistry, University of Oxford, Oxford, UK
    Chembiochem 11:2232-43. 2010
    ..Once the FtsK translocase has located the dif site it then interacts with the XerCD site-specific recombinases to activate recombination...
  5. ncbi Unlinking chromosome catenanes in vivo by site-specific recombination
    Ian Grainge
    Department of Biochemistry, University of Oxford, Oxford, UK
    EMBO J 26:4228-38. 2007
    ..We conclude that FtsK acts in vivo to simplify chromosomal topology as Xer recombination interconverts monomeric and dimeric chromosomes...

    Division of Molecular Genetics, Department of Biochemistry, University of Oxford, Oxford, UK
    EMBO J 25:2596-604. 2006

  8. ncbi Biochemical analysis of components of the pre-replication complex of Archaeoglobus fulgidus
    Ian Grainge
    Cancer Research UK, Clare Hall Laboratories, The London Research Institute, Blanche Lane, South Mimms, Potters Bar, Hertfordshire EN6 3LD, UK
    Nucleic Acids Res 31:4888-98. 2003
    ..Nuclease protection showed that the binding sites for Mcm and Orc/Cdc6 overlap. The Orc/Cdc6 protein bound more tightly to these substrates and was able to displace pre-bound Mcm hexamer...
  9. ncbi Molecular mechanism of sequence-directed DNA loading and translocation by FtsK
    Jan Lowe
    MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Hills Road, Cambridge CB20QH, UK
    Mol Cell 31:498-509. 2008
    ..During translocation, FtsK fails to recognize an inverted KOPS sequence. Therefore, we propose that KOPS act solely as a loading site for FtsK, resulting in a unidirectionally oriented hexameric motor upon DNA...
