Lipoarabinomannan regulates septation in <i>Mycobacterium smegmatis</i>

2023-03-26

Abstract excerpt

The growth and division of mycobacteria, which include several clinically relevant pathogens, deviate significantly from that of canonical bacterial models. Despite their Gram-positive ancestry, mycobacteria synthesize and elongate a diderm envelope asymmetrically from the poles, with the old pole elongating more robustly than the new pole. In addition to being structurally distinct, the molecular components of th...
