Overlapping and essential roles for molecular and mechanical mechanisms in mycobacterial cell division

Georg Fantner, John McKinney, Adrian Pascal Nievergelt, Pascal Damian Odermatt, Haig Alexander Eskandarian, Mélanie Thérèse Marie Hannebelle

Mechanisms to control cell division are essential for cell proliferation and survival. Bacterial cell growth and division require the coordinated activity of peptidoglycan synthases and hydrolytic enzymes to maintain mechanical integrity of the cell wall. ...
