ftsW is an essential cell-division gene in Escherichia coli.

Molecular microbiology - 1 Jun 1997

Boyle D S, Khattar M M, Addinall S G, Lutkenhaus J, Donachie W D

Abstract excerpt

In the absence of exogenous promoters, plasmid-mediated complementation of the temperature-sensitive ftsW201 allele requires the presence of the full coding sequence of ftsW plus upstream DNA encompassing the C-terminus of mraY and the full coding sequence of murD. We used molecular and genetic techniques to introduce an insertional inactivation into the chromosomal copy of ftsW, in the presence of the...
