They can be found naturally and in the laboratory. The name “spheroplast” comes from the circular shape which is adopted by bacterium after removal of its cell wall. This circular shape aids ...

Triggering of assembly by substrate binding is generally accepted in the field. 3) Figure 2A. The spheroplast fraction of several mutants (TatA K49D and TatA K52D) has a band that comigrates with ...

Many eukaryotes assemble a ring-shaped actomyosin network that contracts to drive cytokinesis. Unlike actomyosin in sarcomeres, which cycles through contraction and relaxation, the cytokinetic ring ...
