Function | Essential cell division protein that stabilizes the FtsZ protofilaments by cross-linking them and that serves as a cytoplasmic membrane anchor for the Z ring. Also required for the recruitment to the septal ring of downstream cell division proteins. |
Subunit | Interacts with FtsZ via their C-terminal domains. |
Subcellular location | Cell inner membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Note=Localizes to the Z ring in an FtsZ-dependent manner. |
Similarity | Belongs to the ZipA family. |
