Abstract excerpt

The Escherichia coli mreB gene encodes an actin-like cytoskeletal protein and is required for rod shape formation of cells and chromosome segregation. Just downstream of mreB, the mreC and mreD genes are located. They are also required for rod shape formation, though their role in chromosome segregation is unclear. lacZ fusion analysis and Northern hybridization showed that the mreB, mreC, and mreD genes formed...
