DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Daniela Megrian\nhosted by Martin Loose\nAbstract: The
  bacterial cell envelope is a physical barrier and constitutes the primary
  defense system of bacteria. During propagation\, the cell envelope enlarg
 es and divides to generate two daughter cells. These mechanisms have been 
 studied extensively in model organisms such as Escherichia coli and Bacill
 us subtilis. However\, diverse bacterial lineages exhibit alternative stra
 tegies for cell division and envelope remodeling that differ significantly
  from these well-characterized models. One striking example is the Mycobac
 teriales a large order that includes important human pathogens such as Myc
 obacterium tuberculosis and Corynebacterium diphtheriae where many cell cy
 cle components described in model organisms have either been lost or repla
 ced. These alternative machineries highlight the evolutionary plasticity o
 f bacterial cell division and emphasize the importance of expanding our kn
 owledge beyond model organisms to better understand these processes and de
 velop more effective treatments.
