Screening for interaction partners of SepIVA and AfsK, proteins involved in polar growth of Streptomyces venezuelae
Fishing for interaction partners Bacteria, the most abundant living organisms, come in many shapes and sizes depending on how they grow and divide. Some bacteria like Escherichia coli form rodlike structures and divide in the middle. Others, like Streptomyces venezuelae, grow as long and branching filamentous cells called hyphae. They build their cell walls at the tips of these hyphae. Two protei
