A multi-layered protein network stabilizes the Escherichia coli FtsZ-ring and modulates constriction dynamics. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2015 The prokaryotic tubulin homolog, FtsZ, forms a ring-like structure (FtsZ-ring) at midcell. The FtsZ-ring establishes the division plane and enables the assembly of the macromolecular division machinery (divisome).

The Journal of Symbolic Logic, 2011 AbstractIt is shown that a stable division ring with positive characteristic has finite dimension over its centre. This is then extended to simple division rings.

RodZ: a key-player in cell elongation and cell division in Escherichia coli
AIMS Microbiology, 2019 RodZ is required for determination of cell shape in rod-shaped bacterium, such as Escherichia coli. RodZ is a transmembrane protein and forms a supramolecular complex called the Rod complex with other proteins, such as MreB-actin and peptidoglycan ...

Noc Corrals Migration of FtsZ Protofilaments during Cytokinesis in Bacillus subtilis
mBio, 2021 In bacteria, a condensed structure of FtsZ (Z-ring) recruits cell division machinery at the midcell, and Z-ring formation is discouraged over the chromosome by a poorly understood phenomenon called nucleoid occlusion.

A Stochastic model for dynamics of FtsZ filaments and the formation of Z-ring
, 2020 Understanding the mechanisms responsible for the formation and growth of FtsZ polymers and their subsequent formation of the $Z$-ring is important for gaining insight into the cell division in prokaryotic cells.

Witt group of Hermitian forms over a noncommutative discrete valuation ring
International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2005 We investigate Hermitian forms on finitely generated torsion modules over a noncommutative discrete valuation ring. We also give some results for lattices, which still are satisfied even if the base ring is not commutative. Moreover, for a noncommutative

Bacterial Division: The Fellowship of The Ring [PDF]
Current Biology, 2003 The Z ring, composed of the tubulin homolog FtsZ, is essential for bacterial cell division. Recently a new protein, ZapA, has been discovered that localizes to the Z ring and stabilizes it, probably by promoting the bundling of FtsZ protofilaments.

Remarks on Vector Space Generated by the Multiplicative Commutators of a Division Ring [PDF]
, 2017 Let D be a division ring with centre F. Let T(D) be the vector space over F generated by all multiplicative commutators in D. In [1], authors have conjectured that every division ring is generated as a vector space over its centre by all of its ...

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 The bacterial FtsZ-ring initiates division by recruiting a large repertoire of proteins (the divisome; Z-ring) needed for septation and separation of cells. Although FtsZ is essential and its role as the main orchestrator of cell division is conserved in
