Size of chloroplasts in Arabidopsis mesophyll cells affects jasmonate biosynthesis

open access: yesPlant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 5, Page 1330-1342, August 2026.
The relationship between chloroplast structure and hormone biosynthesis capacity is poorly understood. This study shows that mutants harbouring giant chloroplasts produce more jasmonic acid upon mechanical stress than wild‐type plants, suggesting that organellar architecture is a previously unrecognized factor associated with plant hormone biosynthesis

NMR study of the interaction between MinC and FtsZ and modeling of the FtsZ:MinC complex

open access: yes
15 p.-6 fig.-2 tab.The Min system is a key spatial regulator of cell division in rod-shaped bacteria and the first FtsZ-negative modulator to be recognized.

Localization of FtsZ variants in maxicells.

open access: yes, 2014
(A) Schematic representation of the FtsZ proteins carried by each plasmid used in panel B. The grey shaded square represents the 17 amino acid residues of the carboxyl-terminal domain of FtsZ. This domain is not present in YFP-FtsZ*.

Membrane‐Associated Biomolecules for Synthetic Cell Signalling

open access: yesChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 13, 14 July 2026.
Membrane‐associated proteins and nucleic acids are transforming synthetic cell communication, unlocking applications in biosensing, therapeutics, and tissue engineering. This review explores how these biomolecules enable complementary strategies for cell tethering, vesicle generation and fusion, signal transmission, and signal transduction.

A canonical FtsZ protein in Verrucomicrobium spinosum, a member of the Bacterial phylum Verrucomicrobia that also includes tubulin-producing Prosthecobacter species

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2007
Background The origin and evolution of the homologous GTP-binding cytoskeletal proteins FtsZ typical of Bacteria and tubulin characteristic of eukaryotes is a major question in molecular evolutionary biology. Both FtsZ and tubulin are central to key cell

Dynamic assembly, disassembly and bundling of the bacterial cell division protein FtsZ and YgfE (ZapA) [PDF]

open access: yes
The protein FtsZ is a tubulin-like GTPase, which plays an essential role in prokaryotic cell division. In vivo it assembles into a dynamic ring (the Z-ring) at the future site of cell division on the inner surface of the cytoplasmatic membrane.

A membrane protein, EzrA, regulates assembly dynamics of FtsZ by interacting with the C-terminal tail of FtsZ

open access: yes, 2008
FtsZ polymerizes to form a dynamic ring structure called the Z-ring at the midcell of bacteria. EzrA, a membrane protein, has been shown to prevent the formation of aberrant Z-rings in the low GC Gram-positive bacteria by inhibiting FtsZ assembly.

Severe Restriction of Glucose Import Enhances Recombinant Protein Production in Escherichia coli

open access: yesBiotechnology Journal, Volume 21, Issue 6, June 2026.
Graphical Abstract and Lay Summary Producing recombinant proteins in Escherichia coli is often limited by the bacterium's tendency to consume glucose too rapidly. This excessive glucose uptake causes overflow metabolism, leading to the accumulation of acetate, a byproduct that can reduce cellular performance and protein production.

Localization of FtsZ*-VM in maxicells and in FtsZ-depleted VIP2 cells.

open access: yes, 2014
(A) Schematic representation of the FtsZ variant carried by plasmid pPZV42. The 17 amino acid residues of the carboxyl-terminus domain of FtsZ are not present in FtsZ*-VM. (B) Maxicells obtained from CSR603 cells containing plasmid pPZV42 (FtsZ*-VM) were
