Abstract excerpt
A homologue of the bacterial cell division gene ftsZ was cloned from the filamentous bacterium Streptomyces coelicolor. The gene was located on the physical map of the chromosome at about '11 o'clock' (in the vicinity of glkA, hisA and trpB). Surprisingly, a null mutant in which the 399-codon fts...
