Biofilm physiology is established under a low growth rate. The morphogene bolA is mostly expressed under stress conditions or in stationary phase, suggesting that bolA could be implicated in biofilm d...
Escherichia coli bolA is a morphogene involved in stress response and cell division. Overexpression of bolA induces biofilm formation and affects the levels of carboxypeptidases PBP5, PBP6 and beta-la...
It is known that there is a strong similarity in amino acid sequence between the products of the Escherichia coli morphogenes ftsW (mra region at 2 min) and rodA (mrd region at 14 min) and the Bacillu...
The bolA gene, which is involved in the morphogenetic pathways of Escherichia coli, was sequenced and two potential promoters were identified. Expression from promoter P1, proximal to the bolA structu...
A gene with substantial sequence similarity to the mreB morphogene of Bacillus subtilis has been identified at 302 degrees on the chromosomal map by A. Decatur, B. Kunkel, and R. Losick (Harvard Unive...
The Escherichia coli morphogene bolA causes round morphology when overexpressed. The expression of bolA is mainly regulated by a sigmas-dependent gearbox promoter bolA1p. Such regulation results in in...
