    A quantitative study of the division cycle of Caulobacter crescentus stalked cells. 

    Li, S.; Brazhnik, P.; Sobral, Bruno; Tyson, John J. (2008-01)
    Progression of a cell through the division cycle is tightly controlled at different steps to ensure the integrity of genome replication and partitioning to daughter cells. From published experimental evidence, we propose ...
