DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2301897120
Abstract: Significance Bacterial division is an essential cellular process that involves the formation of a septum made of peptidoglycan. The septum is initially shared between daughters and must be processed to complete division. Septal splitting has… read more here.

DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.02863-22
Abstract: The peptidoglycan (PG) layer is an essential component of the E.coli envelope that is required to maintain cellular shape and integrity. Thus, coordinating PG synthesis and hydrolysis at the mid-cell (septal PG) is crucial during… read more here.
