This project models the cell division process in the bacterium Myxococcus xanthus, focusing on the behavior of a protein cluster that guides division machinery to the cell's center. It combines spatial dynamics with reaction mechanisms to understand biological self-organization and has potential applications in nanostr…
In my research project I will theoretically model a fundamental process in the cell division of the model bacterium Myxococcus xanthus, namely the process for guiding the machinery for cell division to midcell.
In M. xanthus, a cluster comprised of the proteins PomX, PomY, PomZ self-assembles on the nucleoid surface and in an ATP-consuming reaction cycle translocates to midcell, to guide the cell division machinery there.
During cell division the Pom cluster undergoes fission, and the resulting…
