GTPase activity regulates FtsZ ring positioning in Caulobacter crescentus.

Molecular biology of the cell - 1 Jul 2024

Abstract excerpt

Bacterial cell division is crucial for replication and requires careful coordination via proteins collectively called the divisome. The tubulin-like GTPase FtsZ is the master regulator of this process and serves to recruit downstream divisome proteins and regulate their activities. Upon assembling at mid-cell, FtsZ exhibits treadmilling motion driven by GTP binding and hydrolysis. Treadmilling is proposed to play...
