A role for the FtsQLB complex in cytokinetic ring activation revealed by an ftsL allele that accelerates division.

Molecular microbiology - 1 Mar 2015

Tsang Mary-Jane, Bernhardt Thomas G

Abstract excerpt

The cytokinetic apparatus of bacteria is initially formed by the polymerization of the tubulin-like FtsZ protein into a ring structure at midcell. This so-called Z-ring facilitates the recruitment of many additional proteins to the division site to form the mature divisome machine. Although the assembly pathway leading to divisome formation has been well characterized, the mechanisms that trigger cell...
