Archaeal Tubulin-like Proteins Modify Cell Shape in <i>Haloferax volcanii</i> during Early Biofilm Development
Tubulin, an extensively studied self-assembling protein, forms filaments in eukaryotic cells that affect cell shape, among other functions. The model archaeon <i>Haloferax volcanii</i> uses two tubulin-like proteins (FtsZ1/FtsZ2) for cell division, similar to bacteria, but has an additio...
