FIG. 3.
DivL performs a critical function in addition to regulating CtrA phosphorylation. DIC images and DNA contents of SYTOX green-labeled cells of the ΔctrA/pCtrAD51E (A and B), ΔdivL ΔctrA/pCtrAD51E (C and D), and ΔcckA ΔctrA/pCtrAD51E (E and F) strains are shown. In panels B, D, and F, the two dashed lines represent DNA contents of one (left) and two (right) chromosomes. Bar, 5 μm.
