Organization of Peptidoglycan Synthesis in Nodes and Separate Rings at Different Stages of Cell Division of Streptococcus pneumoniae

A. J. Perez, M. J. Boersma, K. E. Bruce, M. M. Lamanna, S. L. Shaw, H.-C. T. Tsui, A. Taguchi, E. E. Carlson, M. S. VanNieuwenhze, M. E. Winkler

This paper investigates the spatial organization of peptidoglycan synthesis in Streptococcus pneumoniae during cell division, revealing distinct rings and nodes of transpeptidase activity and PBP localization.

Movement Dynamics of Divisome and Penicillin-Binding Proteins (PBPs) in Cells of Streptococcus pneumoniae

A. J. Perez, Y. Cesbron, S. L. Shaw, J. Bazan Villicana, H.-C. T. Tsui, M. J. Boersma, Z. A. Ye, Y. Tovpeko, C. Dekker, S. Holden, M. E. Winkler

This paper investigates FtsZ dynamics and its relationship to septal PG synthesis in Streptococcus pneumoniae, finding that FtsZ movement is continuous and independent of PG synthesis rate.
