Alteration in penicillin-binding patterns during cell cycle of Caulobacter crescentus. 1984

S Koyasu, and A Fukuda, and Y Okada

Alteration in penicillin-binding patterns during asymmetrical cell division in the cell cycle of Caulobacter crescentus was examined. Most penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) were turned over slowly, and their penicillin-binding patterns did not alter appreciably during the cell cycle. One of the PBPs, PBP S2 in the soluble fraction, however, was turned over quickly and was detected only in swarmer cells, suggesting that PBP S2 is synthesized in swarmer cells and turned over and/or inactivated in the following stalked cell cycle.

D006602	Hexosyltransferases	Enzymes that catalyze the transfer of hexose groups. EC 2.4.1.-.
D001419	Bacteria	One of the three domains of life (the others being Eukarya and ARCHAEA), also called Eubacteria. They are unicellular prokaryotic microorganisms which generally possess rigid cell walls, multiply by cell division, and exhibit three principal forms: round or coccal, rodlike or bacillary, and spiral or spirochetal. Bacteria can be classified by their response to OXYGEN: aerobic, anaerobic, or facultatively anaerobic; by the mode by which they obtain their energy: chemotrophy (via chemical reaction) or PHOTOTROPHY (via light reaction); for chemotrophs by their source of chemical energy: CHEMOLITHOTROPHY (from inorganic compounds) or chemoorganotrophy (from organic compounds); and by their source for CARBON; NITROGEN; etc.; HETEROTROPHY (from organic sources) or AUTOTROPHY (from CARBON DIOXIDE). They can also be classified by whether or not they stain (based on the structure of their CELL WALLS) with CRYSTAL VIOLET dye: gram-negative or gram-positive.	Eubacteria
