DivIVA controls the dynamics of septum splitting and cell elongation in <i>Streptococcus pneumoniae</i>

2024-05-10

Abstract excerpt

Bacterial shape and division rely on the dynamics of cell wall assembly, which involves regulated synthesis and cleavage of the peptidoglycan. In ovococci, these processes are coordinated in an annular mid-cell region with nanometric dimensions. More precisely, the cross-wall that is synthesized by the divisome is split to generate lateral wall, whose expansion is insured by insertion of so-called peripheral pepti...
