Seven-transmembrane receptor protein RgsP and cell wall-binding protein RgsM promote unipolar growth in Rhizobiales.

Members of the Rhizobiales (class of α-proteobacteria) display zonal peptidoglycan cell wall growth at one cell pole, contrasting with the dispersed mode of cell wall growth along the sidewalls of many other rod-shaped bacteria.
