The Bacillus subtilis dCMP deaminase ComEB acts as a dynamic polar localization factor for ComGA within the competence machinery.

Molecular microbiology - 1 May 2020

Burghard-Schrod Marie, Altenburger Stephan, Graumann Peter L

Abstract excerpt

Bacillus subtilis can import DNA from the environment by an uptake machinery that localizes to a single cell pole. We investigated the roles of ComEB and of the ATPase ComGA during the state of competence. We show that ComEB plays an important role during competence, possibly because it is necessary for the recruitment of GomGA to the cell pole. ComEB localizes to the cell poles even upon expression during...
