Dynamics of the peptidoglycan synthesis machinery during Staphylococcus aureus cell division

Dynamics of the peptidoglycan synthesis machinery during Staphylococcus aureus cell division Bacterial cell division is mediated by the tubulin-homolog FtsZ which recruits peptidoglycan (PG) synthesis enzymes to the division…


Conservation of anti-viral immunity across domains of life

Conservation of anti-viral immunity across domains of life All cells, eukaryotic and prokaryotic, face the threat of viral infections and develop anti-viral systems to fight them off. The constant arms race between cells and…
