A multistranded polymer model explains MinDE dynamics in E. coli cell division.

Biophysical journal - 15 Aug 2007

Cytrynbaum Eric N, Marshall Brandon D L

Abstract excerpt

In Escherichia coli, the location of the site for cell division is regulated by the action of the Min proteins. These proteins undergo a periodic pole-to-pole oscillation that involves polymerization and ATPase activity of MinD under the controlling influence of MinE. This oscillation suppresses division near the poles while permitting division at midcell. Here, we propose a multistranded polymer model for MinD...
