Separation of daughter cells during bacterial cell division requires splitting of the septal cross wall by peptidoglycan hydrolases. In
Streptococcus pneumoniae,
PcsB is predicted to perform this operation. Recent evidence shows that PcsB is recruited to the septum by the transmembrane FtsEX complex, and that this complex is required for cell...
