Figure 2 shows significant lactose transmembrane transport activity of double Cys mutants in RSO membrane vesicles

Figure 6B shows that the absence of YqueH shifts the number of replication origins from 2-4 to 4+ in presence of IPTG. This is evidence that the absence of YqueH increases initiation of chromosome replication.

Figure 6B shows that the absence of Bex shifts the number of replication origins from 2-4 to 4+ in presence of IPTG. This is evidence that the absence of Bex increases initiation of chromosome replication.

Figure 2A is a micrograph image showing normal B. subtilis strain BR151. The cells are short with condensed nucleoids. Figure 2B is a micrograph image showing a Bex null mutant SL7968. The cells are elongated chains with diffuse nucleoids. This is implicates that Bex has a positive role in cell division, more specifically, cell cycle cytokinesis.
