Identification and characterization of a negative regulator of FtsZ ring formation in Bacillus subtilis.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 17 Aug 1999

Levin P A, Kurtser I G, Grossman A D

Abstract excerpt

During the bacterial cell cycle, the tubulin-like cell-division protein FtsZ polymerizes into a ring structure that establishes the location of the nascent division site. We have identified a regulator of FtsZ ring formation in Bacillus subtilis. This protein, EzrA, modulates the frequency and po...
