Bacteria have an exoskeleton called the cell wall, which determines their shape and plays a protective role, particularly from osmotic lysis. Composed by the peptidoglycan, the cell wall is a highly dynamic element of bacterial anatomy, for which the mechanisms governing its synthesis and regulation are not fully elucidated. Within the ProCeD team, I investigate the role of CozE-like proteins in the model bacterium Bacillus subtilis, which are membrane proteins interacting with the actors of bacterial elongation and division. In addition, I will use the FAST fluorescent labeling system to monitor the localization dynamics and visualize the interactions between different actors of cell wall biosynthesis.
