The cell wall regulator {sigma}I specifically suppresses the lethal phenotype of mbl mutants in Bacillus subtilis.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Mar 2009

Schirner Kathrin, Errington Jeff

Abstract excerpt

Bacterial actin homologues are thought to have a role in cell shape determination by positioning the cell wall synthetic machinery. They are also thought to control other functions, including cell polarity and chromosome segregation in various organisms. Bacillus subtilis and many other gram-positive bacteria have three actin isoforms, MreB, Mbl, and MreBH, which colocalize in helical structures that span the...
