Investigation of regulation of FtsZ assembly by SulA and development of a model for FtsZ polymerization.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Apr 2008

Dajkovic Alex, Mukherjee Amit, Lutkenhaus Joe

Abstract excerpt

In Escherichia coli FtsZ organizes into a cytoskeletal ring structure, the Z ring, which effects cell division. FtsZ is a GTPase, but the free energy of GTP hydrolysis does not appear to be used for generation of the constriction force, leaving open the question of the function of the GTPase activity of FtsZ. Here we study the mechanism by which SulA, an inhibitor of FtsZ induced during the SOS response, inhibits...
