(
A) Closeup view of ChIP-seq profiles shown in
Figure 1A, B. Lines indicate
parS site positions. (
B) Read count distribution for chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled to deep sequencing (ChIP-seq) using α-ScpB serum for the ratio plots presented in
Figure 2C. Left panel: strain carrying wild-type Smc. Right panel: strain carrying Smc-CC425. Both strains harbor a single loading site,
-9kbparSopt (
parS-359), and a parB gene under the control of a theophylline-riboswitch. Triangles indicate positions of
parS sites. Dashed lines denote the presence of a
parS site in a given strain.
