 Plasmid partition system

The plasmid partition system is a biological mechanism that ensures the stable inheritance of plasmids during cell division in bacterial cells. Plasmids are small, circular DNA molecules that can replicate independently of the chromosomal DNA and often carry genes that confer advantageous traits, such as antibiotic resistance. The partition system consists of two main components: 1. **Partitioning Proteins**: These proteins are responsible for the proper segregation of plasmids into daughter cells during cell division.
