title: Behavior of sister copies of mini-F plasmid after synchronized plasmid replication in Escherichia coli cells.
abstract: To clarify whether sister copies of mini-F plasmid are immediately separated from each other after replication, we analyzed the behavior of sister mini-F copies after synchronized replication of mini-F. Sister copies of mini-F were separated immediately or shortly after replication, in contrast to sister oriC copies of the Escherichia coli chromosome.
