This study identifies RLip, a conserved lipase in Rickettsia rickettsii, which facilitates intracytosolic colonization by enabling escape from phagolysosomal fusion.

This study shows that the CRY2/CIB1 system can be used to precisely control protein localization in E. coli, enabling manipulation of cellular functions like cytokinesis.

This paper shows that FzlA, an FtsZ-binding protein, conserves its function in activating FtsWI and coordinating chromosome segregation with cell division in diverse alphaproteobacteria.

This study shows that CdnL is downregulated during the stringent response in Caulobacter, and its clearance is essential for adaptation to nutrient fluctuations.

This study identifies FzlA as a regulator linking FtsZ to PG synthesis during bacterial division, showing it activates and spatially orients division-specific PG synthases.
