Functions of the Essential Gene mraY in Cellular Morphogenesis and Development of the Filamentous Cyanobacterium Anabaena PCC 7120
Bacterial cell shape is determined by the peptidoglycan (PG) layer. The cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. PCC 7120 (Anabaena) is a filamentous strain with ovoid-shaped cells connected together with incomplete cell constriction.
