Metabolic control of cell division in α-proteobacteria by a NAD-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase

Prior to initiate energy-consuming processes, such as DNA replication or cell division, cells need to evaluate their metabolic status. We have recently identified and characterized a new connection between metabolism and cell division in the α-proteobacterium Caulobacter crescentus. We showed that a...
