A lytic transglycosylase connects bacterial focal adhesion complexes to the peptidoglycan cell wall and thus transmits proton motive force from the inner membrane to cell surface.

Behavioral, biochemical, and biophysical analyses show that age-related memory deficits can be rescued by directly overexpressing wild-type CREB.

Carboxysomes, the carbon-fixation machinery of cyanobacteria, are equidistantly-positioned by dynamic gradients of the protein McdA on the nucleoid that emerge through interaction with a previously unidentified carboxysome factor, McdB.

Chromosome replication and a different inter-division process both contribute to division control during unperturbed growth, but if division is delayed by increasing cell width the inter-division process becomes solely rate-limiting.

Protein kinase A (PKA) phosphorylates Raptor and inhibits mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) activity.

Polar elongating mycobacteria (Mycobacterium smegmatis) require specific cell wall chemistries, those catalyzed by targets of critical antibiotics, to maintain rod shape at aging sites of the bacillus.

A wide range of bacterial species can switch into a cell wall-free state that does not require the FtsZ-based division machinery to proliferate.

Behavioral and molecular mechanistic studies elaborate the important role of ErbB4 in noradrenergic neurons associated with mania pathogenesis.

The biochemical basis for coupling cytoskeletal dynamics to regulated protein synthesis has been revealed.
