An essential periplasmic protein coordinates lipid trafficking and is required for asymmetric polar growth in mycobacteria

K. R. Gupta, C. M. Gwin, K. C. Rahlwes, K. J. Biegas, C. Wang, J. H. Park, J. Liu, B. M. Swarts, Y. S. Morita, E. H. Rego

This study identifies PgfA as a periplasmic protein essential for asymmetric polar growth in mycobacteria by coordinating lipid trafficking and cell wall synthesis.

Trehalose recycling promotes energy-efficient mycomembrane reorganization in nutrient-limited mycobacteria

A. A. Pohane, C. R. Carr, J. Garhyan, B. M. Swarts, M. S. Siegrist

This study shows that trehalose recycling reduces energy costs for mycomembrane remodeling in nutrient-starved mycobacteria, enhancing survival under stress.

Peptidoglycan precursor synthesis along the sidewall of pole-growing mycobacteria

A. Garcia-Heredia, A. A. Pohane, E. S. Melzer, C. R. Carr, T. J. Fiolek, S. R. Rundell, H. C. Lim, J. Wagner, Y. S. Morita, B. M. Swarts, M. S. Siegrist

The paper investigates peptidoglycan precursor synthesis in mycobacteria, showing that sidewall synthesis responds to cell wall damage while polar synthesis is linked to elongation.
