Abstract excerpt
The spatiotemporal regulation of chromosome segregation and cell division in Caulobacter crescentus is mediated by two different P-loop ATPases, ParA and MipZ. Both of these proteins form dynamic concentration gradients that control the positioning of regulatory targets within the cell. Their proper localization depends on their nucleotide-dependent cycling between a monomeric and a dimeric state and on the...
