Comments [?]

FUNCTIONEssential cell division protein that forms a contractile ring structure (Z ring) at the future cell division site. The regulation of the ring assembly controls the timing and the location of cell division. One of the functions of the FtsZ ring is to recruit other cell division proteins to the septum to produce a new cell wall between the dividing cells. Binds GTP and shows GTPase activity.
SUBUNITHomodimer. Polymerizes to form a dynamic ring structure in a strictly GTP-dependent manner. Interacts directly with several other division proteins.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATIONCytoplasm. Note=Assembles at midcell at the inner surface of the cytoplasmic membrane.
SIMILARITYBelongs to the FtsZ family.
