Abstract excerpt
The trans translation pathway for protein tagging and ribosome release has been found in all bacteria and is required for proliferation and differentiation in many systems. Caulobacter crescentus mutants that lack the trans translation pathway have a defect in the cell cycle and do not initiate DNA replication at the correct time. To determine the molecular basis for this phenotype, effects on events known to be...
