A DNA fragment of Desulfovibrio gigas genome containing replication origin related genes
1Instituto de Tecnologia Química e Biológica, Universidade Nova de Lisboa, Oeiras, Portugal.
Abstract:
The nucleotide sequence of a 10,772 base pair (bp) region from Desulfovibrio gigas genome was determined. This sequence, which is adjacent to the region containing the coding units for the metalloproteins rubredoxin-oxygen oxidoreductase (ROO) and rubredoxin, includes the flavodoxin gene. Additionally, it also contains four open reading frames (ORFs) related to genes frequently found in replication origin regions of prokaryotes. These hypothetical encoded polypeptides are: the response regulator proteins (PhoP and PhoR) from the phosphate regulon, a DNA partitioning protein and an asparagine synthetase.

Chromosome Structure
The centromere is a DNA sequence that links sister chromatids. This is also where kinetochores, protein complexes to which spindle microtubules attach, are constructed after the chromosome is replicated. The kinetochores allow the spindle microtubules to move the chromosomes within the cell during cell division.
