From: Bacillus subtilis actin-like protein MreB influences the positioning of the replication machinery and requires membrane proteins MreC/D and other actin-like proteins for proper localization

Figure 3

Graphical representation of the position of the replication machinery within wild type or actin-depleted cells. The distance of DnaX-CFP foci to the nearest cell pole was measured and plotted relative to cell size. A) wild type cells, B) cells 2–3 doubling times after depletion of Mbl, C) cells 2–3 doubling times after depletion of MreB. single focus of focus closest to a pole, □ second focus, Δ third focus.
