Transcription of the ftsZ gene and cell division in Escherichia coli.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Mar 1990

Robin A, Joseleau-Petit D, D'Ari R

Abstract excerpt

The ftsZ gene of Escherichia coli, which lies in a cluster of cell division genes at 2 min on the genetic map, codes for a protein which is thought to play a key role in triggering cell division. Using an ftsZ::lacZ operon fusion, we have studied the transcription of the ftsZ gene under conditions in which cell division was either inhibited or synchronized in the bacterial population. In ftsZ, ftsA, ftsQ, and...
