We report here that the Escherichia coli replication proteins DnaA, which is required to initiate replication of both the chromosome and plasmid pSC101, and DnaB, the helicase that unwinds strands during DNA replication, have effects on plasmid partitioning that are distinct from their functions in promoting plasmid DNA replication. Temperature-sensitive dnaB mutants cultured under conditions permissive for DNA replication failed to partition plasmids normally, and when cultured under conditions that prevent replication, they showed loss of the entire multicopy pool of plasmid replicons from half of the bacterial population during a single cell division. As was observed previously for DnaA, overexpression of the wild-type DnaB protein conversely stabilized the inheritance of partition-defective plasmids while not increasing plasmid copy number. The identification of dnaA mutations that selectively affected either replication or partitioning further demonstrated the separate roles of DnaA in these functions. The partition-related actions of DnaA were localized to a domain (the cell membrane binding domain) that is physically separate from the DnaA domain that interacts with other host replication proteins. Our results identify bacterial replication proteins that participate in partitioning of the pSC101 plasmid and provide evidence that these proteins mediate plasmid partitioning independently of their role in DNA synthesis.
