Out now in @PLOSGenetics! Activation of ChvG-ChvI regulon by cell wall stress confers resistance to β-lactam antibiotics and initiates surface spreading in Agrobacterium tumefaciens. It's great to see my first co-first author paper published!

Really happy to have this officially published! Thanks to @ShenLabTufts, @SGribaldo, and Najwa for their amazing support!
Give it a read if you’re interested in bacterial cell division, spore formation, and the evolution of PG synthases that drive them:

So excited to finally share this work!!
We found an unexpected repurposing of canonical division enzymes during the evolution of endospore formation and some surprisingly unique aspects of cell division in C. difficile.
Check out our preprint: rb.gy/j5uvc

Better late than never. Big thanks to @caraboutte for the thoughtful highlight of @emily_melzer paper on cell wall damage in M. smegmatis.

New dropbox has been set up at University of Missouri – Columbia @Mizzou! Pickups are every other Tuesday at 12pm, located in Rm116 Tucker Hall. Thanks to Robert Kazmierczak @RobertKaz for hosting the new box! 🦖
My preprint with @Michelle12Will is now posted on bioRxiv! This work finds a novel and likely CONSERVED role for ChvG/ChvI in the phytopathogen Agrobacterium tumefaciens. Keep reading for a wild story! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… (1/10)
This response appears to be conserved in Sinorhizobium meliloti and check out preprint of Alex out of the @HallezLab to see similar results in Caulobacter crescentus! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… (9/10)
