The protein
[SW|Localization]
during logarithmic growth, [[protein|MreB]] forms discrete patches that move processively along peripheral tracks perpendicular to the cell axis [Pubmed|21636744]
forms transverse bands as cells enter the stationary phase [Pubmed|21636744]
forms antiparallel double filaments [Pubmed|24843005]
close to the inner surface of the cytoplasmic membrane [Pubmed|16950129]
reports on helical structures formed by MreB [Pubmed|16950129,20566861] seem to be misinterpretation of data [Pubmed|21636744]
normal localization depends on the presence of glucolipids, [[protein|MreB]] forms irregular clusters in an ''[[gene|ugtP]]'' mutant [Pubmed|22362028]
during stationary phase: delocalized in the cytoplasm [Pubmed|26091431]
during development of [SW|genetic competence]: co-localizes with polar clusters of the late competence protein [[protein|ComGA]] ([[protein|ComGA]] sequesters [[protein|MreB]]) [Pubmed|26091431]

MreB patch speed depends on the growth rate, the faster growth, the higher the patch speed [pubmed|28589952]
