RodZ, a new player in bacterial cell morphogenesis

19 Citationer (Scopus)

Abstract

Three different laboratories have now identified a new morphogenetic factor widely conserved in bacteria. The protein, RodZ, is required for assembly of the actin cytoskeleton MreB that controls cell wall synthesis and cell shape.
