Toward Spatially Regulated Division of Protocells: Insights into the E. coli Min System from in Vitro Studies
For reconstruction of controlled cell division in a minimal cell model, or protocell, a positioning mechanism that spatially regulates division is indispensable. In Escherichia coli, the Min proteins oscillate from pole to pole to determine the division site by inhibition of the primary divisome pro...
