Identification of the SlmA active site responsible for blocking bacterial cytokinetic ring assembly over the chromosome.
Bacterial cells use chromosome-associated division inhibitors to help coordinate the processes of DNA replication and segregation with cytokinesis. SlmA from Escherichia coli, a member of the tetracycline repressor (TetR)-like protein family, is one example of this class of regulator. It blocks the...
