What's a GeneRIF?
  1. The PASTA domains of Bacillus subtilis PBP2B strengthen the interaction of PBP2B with DivIB.
    Title: The PASTA domains of Bacillus subtilis PBP2B strengthen the interaction of PBP2B with DivIB.
  2. These experiments revealed that the C-terminal region of the beta domain of DivIB is critical for its interaction with PBP 2B.
    Title: Evidence from artificial septal targeting and site-directed mutagenesis that residues in the extracytoplasmic β domain of DivIB mediate its interaction with the divisomal transpeptidase PBP 2B.
  3. DivIB has three molecular epitopes that mediate its localization to division septa; two epitopes are encoded within the extracytoplasmic region while the third is located in the transmembrane domain.
    Title: The divisomal protein DivIB contains multiple epitopes that mediate its recruitment to incipient division sites.
  4. DivIB is required for the modification of sporulation septal peptidoglycan, raising the possibility that DivIB either regulates hydrolysis of polar septal peptidoglycan or is a hydrolase itself
    Title: Requirement for the cell division protein DivIB in polar cell division and engulfment during sporulation in Bacillus subtilis.
