Simulations suggest a constrictive force is required for Gram-negative bacterial cell division
It is unclear whether a constrictive force is exerted on the membrane from inside during bacterial cell division, or cell wall remodeling alone drives membrane constriction from outside. Here, the authors use simulations to explore different mechanisms for cell wall division, supporting that a const...
