what is the function of mrec in bacterial cells?
<answer> The bacterial cytoskeleton and cell shape-determining proteins such as MreC, function in concert to orches-trate the localization of cell wall synthetic complexes resulting in spatially co-ordinated and efficient pepti-doglycan synthetic activity. <context> the bacterial cytoskeleton and cell shape-determining proteins such as MreC, function in concert to orches-trate the localization of cell wall synthetic complexes resulting in spatially co-ordinated and efficient pepti-doglycan synthetic activity. Introduction The distinct morphology of most bacterial cells is dictated by the architecture of the peptidoglycan cell wall. In Gram-negative bacteria, the cell wall is thought to be a single
