BIOL 2400 Lecture Notes - Lecture 7: Mreb, Chromosome Segregation, Dna Replication
Document Summary
What are the two main pathways of the cell cycle? circular. What is the overall shape of bacterial dna? origin of replication. Where does replication end? group of proteins needed for dna synthesis. In what direction does replication occur? an actin homolog, plays role in determination of cell shape as spiral inside cell periphery, and chromosome segregation. What happens if there is a mutation in mreb? formation of cross walls between daughter cells. Define septation selection of site for septum formation assembly of z ring linkage of z ring to plasma membrane assembly of cell wall synthesizing machinery constriction of cell and septum formation. Min c, min d, and min e (mincde) Describe the functions of the mincde system link peptidoglycan strands and catalyze controlled degradation for new growth. Pbp enzymes that degrade peptidoglycan and site new units added. Udp binds to nam and nag, carried to periplasm, autolysis degrade current bonds of peptidoglycan to allow for insertion of new.
