Abstract excerpt
Proteolytic inactivation of key regulatory proteins is essential in eukaryotic cell-cycle control. We have identified a protease in the eubacterium Caulobacter crescentus that is indispensable for viability and cell-cycle progression, indicating that proteolysis is also involved in controlling th...
