Myxobacteria, phylogenetically located in the delta division of the Proteobacteria, are well known for characterized social behaviors and large genomes of more than 9 Mb in size. Myxococcus fulvus is a typical species of the genus Myxococcus in the family Myxococcaceae. M. fulvus 124B02, originally isolated from a soil sample collected in Northeast China, is the one and only presently known myxobacterial...
Thus far, pMF1 is the only endogenous myxobacterial plasmid whose replication mechanism is unclear. In this study, we determined that the plasmid replicates via the theta-mode. The pMF1.14 gene, located in the pMF1.13–pMF1.15 operon (repABC), encodes an essential replication initiation protein that was predicted to have no typical DNA/protein binding motifs but contains rich disordered regions. The...
