摘要：

Recent studies provide evidence that bacterial chromosomes are replicated by an enzyme factory, the replisome, located at a fixed position at the center of the cell; the fixed replisome could be a major factor in determining chromosome order in the cell, and may provide the force that drives chromosome segregation.
