Streptomycetes grow as filamentous cells called hyphae. These cells elongate using a polar method of growth where the cell wall synthesis is restricted to the hyphal tips. It has been proved that the protein DivIVA directs the cell wall assembly to the poles and initiate branch formation along the lateral cell wall. Observations of DivIVA shows that it is regulated by AfsK, a Ser/Thr protein kinas
