Amidase activity is essential for medial localization of AmiC in Caulobacter crescentus.

Current genetics - 1 Jun 2018

Dubey Amrita, Priyadarshini Richa

Abstract excerpt

Bacterial cell division is a complex process brought about by the coordinated action of multiple proteins. Separation of daughter cells during the final stages of division involves cleavage of new cell wall laid down at the division septum. In E. coli, this process is governed by the action of N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine amidases AmiA/B/C, which are regulated by their LytM activators EnvC and NlpD. While much is...
