MinC mutants deficient in MinD- and DicB-mediated cell division inhibition due to loss of interaction with MinD, DicB, or a septal component.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Apr 2005

Zhou Huaijin, Lutkenhaus Joe

Abstract excerpt

The min locus encodes a negative regulatory system that limits formation of the cytokinetic Z ring to midcell by preventing its formation near the poles. Of the three Min proteins, MinC is the inhibitor and prevents Z-ring formation by interacting directly with FtsZ. MinD activates MinC by recruiting it to the membrane and conferring a higher affinity on the MinCD complex for a septal component. MinE regulates...
