Mapping flexibility and the assembly switch of cell division protein FtsZ by computational and mutational approaches.

The Journal of biological chemistry - 16 Jul 2010

Martín-Galiano Antonio J, Buey Rubén M, Cabezas Marta, Andreu José M

Abstract excerpt

The molecular switch for nucleotide-regulated assembly and disassembly of the main prokaryotic cell division protein FtsZ is unknown despite the numerous crystal structures that are available. We have characterized the functional motions in FtsZ with a computational consensus of essential dynamics, structural comparisons, sequence conservation, and networks of co-evolving residues. Employing this information, we...
