Role for the nonessential N terminus of FtsN in divisome assembly.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Jan 2007

Goehring Nathan W, Robichon Carine, Beckwith Jon

Abstract excerpt

FtsN, the last essential protein in the cell division localization hierarchy in Escherichia coli, has several peculiar characteristics, suggesting that it has a unique role in the division process despite the fact that it is conserved in only a subset of bacteria. In addition to suppressing temperature-sensitive mutations in ftsA, ftsK, ftsQ, and ftsI, overexpression of FtsN can compensate for a complete lack of...
