PBP4 Is Likely Involved in Cell Division of the Longitudinally Dividing Bacterium <i>Candidatus</i> Thiosymbion Oneisti
Peptidoglycan (PG) is essential for bacterial survival and maintaining cell shape. The rod-shaped model bacterium <i>Escherichia coli</i> has a set of seven endopeptidases that remodel the PG during cell growth. The gamma proteobacterium <i>Candidatus</i> Thiosymbion oneisti...
