Direct visualization of a molecular handshake that governs kin recognition and tissue formation in myxobacteria

Many organisms regulate their social life through kin recognition, but the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Here, we use a social bacterium, Myxococcus xanthus, to investigate kin recognition at the molecular level. By direct visualization of a cell surface receptor, TraA, we show how th...
