Abstract excerpt
Cell wall synthesis in bacteria is spatially organized by cytoskeletal structures. Common to all cell wall-bearing bacteria, the cytokinetic machinery localizes the cell wall synthesis to the site of septation. Recently, MinJ, a new component of the cytokinetic machinery, or divisome, of Bacillus subtilis has been described. MinJ is part of the division site selection system but also essential for correct...
