This study identifies HpaAB as an active chromosome segregation system in Haloferax volcanii, essential for equipositioning replicons and maintaining genomic stability.

This study shows that the ParA-like ATPase PldP in Corynebacterium glutamicum affects TatA dynamics, leading to cell division defects and impacting the secretion of peptidoglycan hydrolases.

This paper shows that in Corynebacterium glutamicum, deletion of SMC makes FtsK essential for chromosome segregation, as FtsK compensates for SMC loss by extending its activity at the septum.

The paper uses single molecule microscopy to show that PTS permease clusters in C. glutamicum dynamically adjust protein density based on substrate availability.
