Deskripsi
Streptomycetes are multicellular bacteria that grow as multinucleoid filaments with infrequent cross-walls. Here, the authors describe a membrane system that forms protein-impermeable barriers and compartmentalizes the multinucleoid filaments independently from the FtsZ-guided cell division machinery.
