The PomXYZ cell division regulators self-organize on the nucleoid to position cell division at midcell in the rod-shaped bacterium Myxococcus xanthus

Accurate positioning of the division site is essential to produce daughter cells with the correct size, and chromosome content. Generally, the first known event of bacterial cell division is the accumulation of FtsZ at the incipient cell division site to form the circumferential, ring-like structure...
