SmeA, a small membrane protein with multiple functions in <i>Streptomyces</i> sporulation including targeting of a SpoIIIE/FtsK‐like protein to cell division septa
8 Aug 2007
Abstract excerpt
Sporulation in aerial hyphae of Streptomyces coelicolor involves profound changes in regulation of fundamental morphogenetic and cell cycle processes to convert the filamentous and multinucleoid cells to small unigenomic spores. Here, a novel sporulation locus consisting of smeA (encoding a small putative membrane protein) and sffA (encoding a SpoIIIE/FtsK-family protein) is characterized. Deletion of smeA-sffA...
