Linking the Peptidoglycan Synthesis Protein Complex with Asymmetric Cell Division during <i>Bacillus subtilis</i> Sporulation
Peptidoglycan is generally considered one of the main determinants of cell shape in bacteria. In rod-shaped bacteria, cell elongation requires peptidoglycan synthesis to lengthen the cell wall. In addition, peptidoglycan is synthesized at the division septum during cell division. Sporulation of <...
