This study identifies two distinct mechanisms by which PomX and PomY activate PomZ ATPase in Myxococcus xanthus, revealing a non-canonical AAP mechanism for PomY and a role analogous to MinE for PomX.

This paper shows that phosphorylated EpsW activates exopolysaccharide biosynthesis by promoting EpsZ dimerization in Myxococcus xanthus.

This study identifies EcpK as a bacterial tyrosine pseudokinase essential for exopolysaccharide biosynthesis in Myxococcus xanthus, showing it functions as a scaffold rather than through phosphorylation.

This paper identifies DdiA as a transcriptional regulator in Myxococcus xanthus that controls a LexA-independent DNA damage response, balancing mutagenesis and fitness.

This study identifies the combinatorial regulation of T4aP formation in M. xanthus through interactions between MglA, SgmX, FrzS, and SopA, showing how these proteins coordinate polar localization and function.
