Ligand binding represses bacterial histidine kinase activity by inhibiting its dimerization

Gaurav D. Sankhe, Jiawei Xing, Xiansha Xiao…·Michael S. Glickman

This study shows that ligand binding inhibits dimerization of the bacterial histidine kinase PdtaS, thereby repressing its activity and multi-ligand sensing.

Longitudinal cell division is associated with single mutations in the FtsZ-recruiting SsgB in Streptomyces

Xiansha Xiao, Joost J. Willemse, Patrick Voskamp…·Gilles P. van Wezel

The paper shows that mutations in SsgB, a protein that recruits FtsZ, cause longitudinal cell division in Streptomyces by altering septum placement.
