GeneRIFs: Gene References Into Functions

What's a GeneRIF?
  1. using super-resolution microscopy, we demonstrate that DivIVA and SpoIIE ultimately display a biased localization on the side of the polar septum that faces the smaller compartment in which sigmaF is activated
    Title: Asymmetric division and differential gene expression during a bacterial developmental program requires DivIVA.
  2. The authors propose that Maf and ComGA mediate mechanisms for the inhibition of cell division in competent cells with Maf acting downstream of ComGA and that Maf must interact with DivIVA to inhibit cell division.
    Title: Maf acts downstream of ComGA to arrest cell division in competent cells of B. subtilis.
  3. demonstrated that polar targeting of DivIVA(R18C) is not essential during vegetative growth; showed that DivIVA(R18C) can function during sporulation; established that both residues 18 and 19 constitute a DivIVA polar targeting determinant
    Title: Identification of a polar targeting determinant for Bacillus subtilis DivIVA.
