The interplay between the polar growth determinant DivIVA, the segregation protein ParA and their novel interaction partner PapM controls the <i>Mycobacterium smegmatis</i> cell cycle by modulation of DivIVA subcellular distribution
2023-04-19
Abstract excerpt
Bacterial chromosome segregation is facilitated by the ParABS system. The ParB protein binds centromere-like parS sequences and forms nucleoprotein complexes. These nucleoprotein complexes are segregated by the dynamic ATPase ParA. In mycobacteria, ParA also interacts with the polar growth determinant DivIVA (Wag31). This interaction was earlier shown to facilitate the segregation of ParB complexes but also to af...
