mLife, EarlyView.Abstract The elongasome, or the Rod complex, orchestrates lateral peptidoglycan (PG) synthesis in many rod‐shaped bacteria. It consists of the actin‐like protein MreB, the PG synthase RodA‐PBP2 complex, as well as MreCD and RodZ. Although the loss or disruption of any elongasome component results in a loss of rod shape, previous studies found that a ...

Exploiting Device Deformability for Fluid and Particle Manipulation
Small, EarlyView.Deformable devices enable fluid and particle manipulation modes that are inaccessible to rigid platforms. This review examines soft materials and architectures that translate controlled deformation into microscale fluid operations such as pumping, valving, mixing, and particle handling.
