		We have found that tmRNA is required for regulation of the cell cycle and development in Caulobacter crescentus, and we are using biochemical and genetic approaches to understand the molecular events which underlie the tmRNA mechanism and to understand the role of tmRNA in bacterial differentiation and physiology.
		Caulobacter is an ideal organism to study bacterial differentiation and cell-cycle regulation, since each round of the cell cycle includes an obligatory differentiation event (Fig.
		In Caulobacter, a deletion of tmRNA results in a delay in the initiation of DNA replication during the swarmer-to-stalked cell transition.

		Caulobacter is one of the many genera (Gram negative and Gram positive) that elaborate a paracrystalline array surface (S) layer on their outermost surface.
		Caulobacter could be detected from virtually every type of municipal waste water treatment plant from across the USA and Canada at all points in the process except for the strongly anaerobic regions of sludge digesters used by many facilities to reduce sludge volume and generate methane gas.
		Caulobacter were present in the enrichment but not in sufficient numbers for it to be successfully isolated, nor to conclude that they were the mass contaminant.

		Although many of the major cell-cycle regulators in Caulobacter are known, it remains a major challenge to identify the complete network underlying cell-cycle oscillations and cellular asymmetry.
		Caulobacter is a powerful model for studying regulation, as cells are easily synchronized, cell-cycle progression can be tracked by monitoring a series of morphological transitions, and a complete suite of genetic tools is available.
		The Caulobacter genome encodes 64 histidine kinases and 42 response regulators, at least 10 of which have been found to be involved in cell-cycle progression, in previous genetic screens.

		Caulobacter divides asymmetrically, with one half of the original cell developing a flagellum, a wavy "tail" attached to the cell, and the second half developing a straight "tail," or a stalk (caulis is Latin for "stalk").
		As the two cells develop, the stalk cell renews the division process immediately, while the cell with the flagellum goes through a second stage of developing a stalk before dividing again.

		A global approach was used to analyze protein synthesis and stability during the cell cycle of the bacterium Caulobacter crescentus.
		The concentration of several important modulators of the Caulobacter cell cycle progression such as the transcriptional regulator CtrA, the cell division protein FtsZ, and the DNA methyltransferase CcrM fluctuate during the cell cycle as a consequence of timed synthesis and degradation.
		This is, for instance, the case for the flagellar proteins, which are expressed towards the end of the Caulobacter cell cycle in a three-tired expression cascade resulting in the ordered assembly of a single flagellum at one pole of the predivisional cell.

		The model system for these studies is the alpha-proteobacterium Caulobacter crescentus, in which the stalked cell divides repeatedly, much like a stem cell, to produce the mother stalked cell plus a new, motile swarmer cell (Figure 1).
		Construction of the swarmer cell requires the biosynthesis of a unique set of surface structures, including the flagellum, DNA phage receptors and pili, which are assembled sequentially at one pole of the predivisional cell during the course of the cell cycle (Figure 2 and reviewed in Newton and Ohta 2003).
		Thus, the importance of spatial regulation with respect to cell cycle progression and development in Caulobacter is variable.
