Dynamic relocalization of MinD in Bacillus subtilis arises from membrane binding of monomers and dimers with membrane-triggered ATP hydrolysis, suggesting MinE-like activators are unnecessary for Min ...
Diurnal cycles in microbial reducer activity reveal synchronized mobilization of arsenic and iron in the rice rhizosphere, as shown by metatranscriptomic and biogeochemical analyses.
