RacA and the Soj-Spo0J system combine to effect polar chromosome segregation in sporulating Bacillus subtilis.

Molecular microbiology - 1 Sept 2003

Wu Ling Juan, Errington Jeff

Abstract excerpt

Sporulating cells of Bacillus subtilis undergo a highly polarized cell division and possess a specialized mechanism to move the oriC region of the chromosome close to the cell pole before septation. DivIVA protein, which localizes to the cell pole, and the Soj and Spo0J proteins, which associate with the chromosome, are part of the mechanism that delivers the chromosome to the cell pole. A sporulation-specific...
