A three-protein inhibitor of polar septation during sporulation in Bacillus subtilis.

Molecular microbiology - 1 Dec 2001

Eichenberger P, Fawcett P, Losick R

Abstract excerpt

We present evidence for a three-protein inhibitor of polar division that locks in asymmetry after the formation of a polar septum during sporulation in Bacillus subtilis. Asymmetric division involves the formation of cytokinetic Z-rings near both poles of the developing cell. Next, a septum is formed at one of the two polar Z-rings, thereby generating a small, forespore cell and a mother cell. Gene expression...
