Robust helicase loading mechanism underlies diverse architectures of bacterial replication origins
These findings reveal remarkable architectural flexibility, mechanistic robustness, and a conserved mechanism in oriC, and highlight unwinding stability as a key determinant of oriC adaptation to rapid cell growth, providing insight into the evolution of oriC architecture.
