Scope and Contents

Contents

Bacterial MreB forms cytoskeletal filaments, rotating around the cell width, helping to shape cells. Imaging experiments indicate that MreB association with the
B. subtilis
cell membrane requires the peptidoglycan and wall teichoic acid precursor lipid II.
The bacterial actin homolog MreB, which is crucial for rod shape determination, form...
