<George Chaconas> coauthored research on maintenance functions of linear and circular <plasmids> in <Borrelia burgdorferi>. The two DNA topologies raise related questions about replication and stable inheritance.
A plasmid's shape and its maintenance machinery are distinct properties. Comparing the two forms helps ask which functions are shared and which depend on topology.<Conservation of plasmid maintenance functions between linear and circular plasmids in Borrelia burgdorferi by Philip E.
