Title: The GTPase CpgA is implicated in the deposition of the peptidoglycan sacculus in Bacillus subtilis. Author: Absalon C, Hamze K, Blanot D, Frehel C, Carballido-Lopez R, Holland BI, van Heijenoort J, Séror SJ. Journal: J Bacteriol; 2008 May; 190(10):3786-90. PubMed ID: 18344364. Abstract: Depletion of the Bacillus subtilis GTPase CpgA produces abnormal cell shapes, nonuniform deposition of cell wall, and five- to sixfold accumulation of peptidoglycan precursors. Nevertheless, the inherent structure of the cell wall appeared mostly unchanged. The results are consistent with CpgA being involved in coordinating normal peptidoglycan deposition.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
