Bactofilin-mediated organization of the ParABS chromosome segregation system in Myxococcus xanthus

The roles played by bactofilins, a widespread type of bacterial cytoskeletal elements, are unclear. Here, the authors show that the bactofilins BacNOP facilitate proper subcellular localization of the ParABS chromosome segregation system in the model organism Myxococcus xanthus.
