A bipartite, low-affinity roadblock domain-containing GAP complex regulates bacterial front-rear polarity.
The Ras-like GTPase MglA is a key regulator of front-rear polarity in the rod-shaped Myxococcus xanthus cells. MglA-GTP localizes to the leading cell pole and stimulates assembly of the two machineries for type IV pili-dependent motility and gliding motility. MglA-GTP localization is spatially const...
