GpsB is the hardest working protein in Firmicutes (it's a hub that modulates ~10 different cell division & cell wall synthesis proteins), but how can one protein manage all this? Apparently, the answer is phosphorylation. Great new paper by @lilymcknight.bsky.social and @eswaralab.bsky.social

I am so proud of this work spearheaded by @lilymcknight.bsky.social! In this ~4-year effort, we reveal that the presence of GpsB is crucial for cell wall stress response and antibiotic resistance (via Stk/PknB and VraSR) in S. aureus. See the thread below for more info! #MicroSky #AMR #ProudPI
