SmdA is a Novel Cell Morphology Determinant in Staphylococcus aureus

ABSTRACT Cell division and cell wall synthesis in staphylococci need to be precisely coordinated and controlled to allow the cell to multiply while maintaining its nearly spherical shape. The mechanisms ensuring correct placement of the division plane and synthesis of new cell wall have been studied...
