de Boer B, van den Berg G, de Boer P, Moorman A, Ruijter J
Dev Biol . 2012 May; 368(2):203-13. PMID: 22617458
Analysis of experiments aimed at understanding the genetic mechanisms of differentiation and growth of the heart, calls for detailed insights into cardiac growth and proliferation rate of myocytes and their...

Hale C, Shiomi D, Liu B, Bernhardt T, Margolin W, Niki H, et al.
J Bacteriol . 2011 Jan; 193(6):1393-404. PMID: 21216997
Assembly of the cell division apparatus in bacteria starts with formation of the Z ring on the cytoplasmic face of the membrane. This process involves the accumulation of FtsZ polymers...

de Boer P
Curr Opin Microbiol . 2010 Oct; 13(6):730-7. PMID: 20943430
Much of what we know about cytokinesis in bacteria has come from studies with Escherichia coli, and efforts to comprehensively understand this fundamental process in this organism continue to intensify....

Gerding M, Liu B, Bendezu F, Hale C, Bernhardt T, de Boer P
J Bacteriol . 2009 Aug; 191(24):7383-401. PMID: 19684127
Of the known essential division proteins in Escherichia coli, FtsN is the last to join the septal ring organelle. FtsN is a bitopic membrane protein with a small cytoplasmic portion...

Bendezu F, Hale C, Bernhardt T, de Boer P
EMBO J . 2008 Dec; 28(3):193-204. PMID: 19078962
The bacterial MreB actin cytoskeleton is required for cell shape maintenance in most non-spherical organisms. In rod-shaped cells such as Escherichia coli, it typically assembles along the long axis in...

van den Berg G, Abu-Issa R, de Boer B, Hutson M, de Boer P, Soufan A, et al.
Circ Res . 2008 Dec; 104(2):179-88. PMID: 19059840
Recent studies have shown that the primary heart tube continues to grow by addition of cells from the coelomic wall. This growth occurs concomitantly with embryonic folding and formation of...

Bendezu F, de Boer P
J Bacteriol . 2007 Nov; 190(5):1792-811. PMID: 17993535
Maintenance of rod shape in Escherichia coli requires the shape proteins MreB, MreC, MreD, MrdA (PBP2), and MrdB (RodA). How loss of the Mre proteins affects E. coli viability has...

Gerding M, Ogata Y, Pecora N, Niki H, de Boer P
Mol Microbiol . 2007 Jan; 63(4):1008-25. PMID: 17233825
Fission of bacterial cells involves the co-ordinated invagination of the envelope layers. Invagination of the cytoplasmic membrane (IM) and peptidoglycan (PG) layer is likely driven by the septal ring organelle....

Soufan A, van den Berg G, Ruijter J, de Boer P, van den Hoff M, Moorman A
Circ Res . 2006 Aug; 99(5):545-52. PMID: 16888243
Increase in cell size and proliferation of myocytes are key processes in cardiac morphogenesis, yet their regionalization during development of the heart has been described only anecdotally. We have made...
