Roles of PknB and CslA in cell wall morphogenesis of Streptomyces

Marta Derkacz, Andrew Watson, Akshada Gajbhiye…·Bernhard Kepplinger

This study identifies PknB-dependent phosphorylation of CslA as critical for cell wall morphogenesis in Streptomyces, showing how modulating β-glucan synthesis can counteract DivIVA dysregulation.

The gamma-butyrolactone receptors ScbR and AtrA form a quorum sensing switch between coelimycin and actinorhodin synthesis in Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2)

Bartosz Bednarz, Magdalena Kotowska, Mateusz Wenecki…·Krzysztof Pawlik

The paper identifies AtrA as a GBL receptor that activates coelimycin production while repressing actinorhodin, revealing a quorum sensing mechanism for antibiotic synthesis in Streptomyces coelicolor.
