 The Par (partitioning) system can be found in many bacteria including Caulobacter which undergoes budding. Similar to mitotic spindle fibers which separate replicated chromosomes in eukaryotic cells, the Par system distributes chromosomes and plasmids equally to progeny cells during growth. This system is composed of the ParAATPase, the ParB chromosome-binding protein, and the PopZ complex, as well as a centromere-like parS sequence located near oriC.
