Structural Insights into the Conformational Variability of FtsZ

open access: yesJournal of Molecular Biology, 2007
FtsZ is a prokaryotic homologue of the eukaryotic cytoskeletal protein tubulin and plays a central role in prokaryotic cell division. Both FtsZ and tubulin are known to pass through cycles of polymerization and depolymerization, but the structural mechanisms underlying this cycle remain to be determined.

FtsZ and cell division

Research in Microbiology, 1991
The ftsZ gene in Escherichia coli is thought to be an essential gene and to play a pivotal role in cell division. Gene disruption experiments confirmed that ftsZ is an essential gene. Examination of cellular responses to FtsZ depletion indicated that FtsZ was required for division but not for nucleoid segregation. Analysis of mutations within the ftsZ,

FtsZ: The Force Awakens

Journal of the Indian Institute of Science, 2021
Binary fission of prokaryotic cells depends on a protein called FtsZ that self-assembles into a membrane-associated ring structure (FtsZ-ring) in the early stages of the cell division process. FtsZ is a tubulin homologue, which interacts with many additional proteins contributing to its function forming a ring at the mid-cell, essential for bacterial ...

FtsZ

1999
Abstract FtsZ is a universal cytoskeletal protein in prokaryotes. FtsZ assembles into a ring that encircles the bacterium at the site of septation and contracts as the septum is formed. It is found in eubacteria, archaebacteria, and chloroplasts. FtsZ assembles into protofilaments and protofilament sheets in vitro, with a lattice similar

FtsZ and the division of prokaryotic cells and organelles [PDF]

open access: yesNature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology, 2005
Binary fission of many prokaryotes as well as some eukaryotic organelles depends on the FtsZ protein, which self-assembles into a membrane-associated ring structure early in the division process. FtsZ is homologous to tubulin, the building block of the microtubule cytoskeleton in eukaryotes.
