Disruption of the MreB Elongasome Is Overcome by Mutations in the Tricarboxylic Acid Cycle
The bacterial actin homolog, MreB, is highly conserved among rod-shaped bacteria and essential for growth under normal growth conditions. MreB directs the localization of cell wall synthesis and loss of MreB results in round cells and death. Using the MreB depolymerizing drug, A22, we show that chan...
