What's a GeneRIF?
  1. Structure-function analysis revealed that the outer membrane localization of NlpD is critical for regulating its amidase activation activity.
    Title: NlpD links cell wall remodeling and outer membrane invagination during cytokinesis in Escherichia coli.
  2. The authors report that AmiB and EnvC are recruited to division sites independently of one another. The same is also true for AmiC and NlpD.
