The positioning of the asymmetric septum during sporulation in Bacillus subtilis.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2018

Barák Imrich, Muchová Katarína

Abstract excerpt

Probably one of the most controversial questions about the cell division of Bacillus subtilis, a rod-shaped bacterium, concerns the mechanism that ensures correct division septum placement-at mid-cell during vegetative growth but closer to one end during sporulation. In general, bacteria multiply by binary fission, in which the division septum forms almost exactly at the cell centre. How the division machinery...
