This gene is a member of the following regulons

Spo0A regulon

The gene

Basic information

  • Locus tag: BSU15420

Phenotypes of a mutant

  • Deletion of divIVA leads to filamentation and polar divisions that in turn cause a minicell phenotype. PubMed
  • A divIVA mutant has a severe sporulation defect. PubMed

Database entries

  • DBTBS entry: [1]
  • SubtiList entry: [2]

Additional information

Filamentation is suppressed by mutations in minCD PubMed.

The protein

Basic information/ Evolution

  • Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity:
    • curvature sensitive membrane binding protein that recruits other proteins to the poles and the division septum
    • DivIVA is required for polar localisation of MinC-MinD via MinJ. PubMed
    • It also recruits RacA to the distal pole of the prespore PubMed.
  • Protein family: gpsB family (according to Swiss-Prot)
  • Paralogous protein(s): GpsB

Extended information on the protein

  • Kinetic information:
  • Domains:
    • the first 60 amino acids constitute a conserved lipid binding domain. PubMed
    • the C-terminal domain is less conserved
    • multimerisation involves two coiled-coil motifs, one in the lipid binding domain, and the other one being present in the helical C-terminal domain PubMed PubMed
  • Modification:
    • phosphorylated on Arg-102 PubMed
    • The Mycobacterium DivIVA homologue Wag31 is phosphorylated at T73 PubMed
    • DivIVA from Streptococcus pneumoniae is phosphorylated at Threonine 201 by the Ser/Thr protein kinase Sktp1. PubMedPubMed
  • Effectors of protein activity: not known
  • Localization:
    • DivIVA forms a ring underneath the invaginating membrane at the site of cell division and is enriched at both cell poles PubMed.
    • forms rings at the division septum and patches at the cell poles PubMed
    • membrane targeting requires SecA PubMed

Database entries

  • KEGG entry: [3]
  • E.C. number:

Additional information

Expression and regulation

  • Regulation:
    • repressed under conditions that trigger sporulation (Spo0A) PubMed
    • constitutively expressed PubMed
  • Regulatory mechanism:
