Extended information on the protein
- Kinetic information:
- Modification:
- Effectors of protein activity:
- Z ring formation is inhibited upon binding of MciZ to FtsZ
- bundling of FtsZ protofilaments into strikingly long and regular tubular structures reminiscent of eukaryotic microtubules requires the prior formation of large ring polymers of SepF PubMed
- interaction with UgtP inhibits FtsZ filament formation PubMed
- FtsZ polymerization is inhibited by interaction with MinC PubMed
- Localization:
- septal at the cell membrane PubMed
- septal localization partially depends on the proton motive force PubMed
