Characterization of rodZ mutants: RodZ is not absolutely required for the cell shape and motility.

FEMS microbiology letters - 1 Aug 2010

Niba Emma Tabe Eko, Li Gaochi, Aoki Kenji, Kitakawa Madoka

Abstract excerpt

RodZ (YfgA) is a membrane protein well conserved among bacterial species and important in the determination of cell shape and motility, although the molecular mechanism involved is not well established. We have characterized a DeltarodZ mutant and show that defective peptidoglycan synthesis might...
