Penicillin-binding protein-related factor A is required for proper chromosome segregation in Bacillus subtilis.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Mar 2000

Pedersen L B, Setlow P

Abstract excerpt

Previous work has shown that the ponA gene, encoding penicillin-binding protein 1 (PBP1), is in a two-gene operon with prfA (PBP-related factor A) (also called recU), which encodes a putative 206-residue basic protein (pI = 10.1) with no significant sequence homology to proteins with known functions. Inactivation of prfA results in cells that grow slower and vary significantly in length relative to wild-type...
