摘要：

A particular outer membrane fraction previously defined as possessing specific affinity for the hemimethylated form of the origin of replication of the E. coli chromosome (oriC) is shown to inhibit the initiation of DNA synthesis at this site on hemimethylated DNA templates in vitro. The replication of fully methylated or unmethylated DNA templates is not affected. Also, no inhibition is observed if initiation takes place at random sites on the hemimethylated template. The key inactivation step appears to be membrane inhibition of DnaA initiator protein binding to oriC. Remethylation of the membrane-bound hemimethylated DNA results in reactivation. Our results demonstrate direct involvement of the membrane in the control of DNA replication. We propose that association/dissociation of the origin from the cell membrane is one of the control elements governing interintiation times in E. coli. © 1990.
