FtsA is localized to the septum in an FtsZ-dependent manner.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Dec 1996

Addinall S G, Lutkenhaus J

Abstract excerpt

The localization of the cell division protein FtsA in E. coli was examined. FtsA was found to localize to the septum in a ring pattern as previously shown for FtsZ. The localization of FtsA was completely dependent on the localization of FtsZ. Under a variety of conditions that prevented formation of the Z ring, FtsA was unable to localize. In mutants where FtsZ forms structures in addition to Z rings, the...
