AC MF_00909; DC Protein; auto TR HAMAP; MF_00909; -; 1; level=0 XX Names: FtsZ XX ID FTSZ DE RecName: Full=Cell division protein FtsZ; GN Name=ftsZ; XX CC -!- FUNCTION: Essential cell division protein that forms a contractile ring CC structure (Z ring) at the future cell division site. The regulation of CC the ring assembly controls the timing and the location of cell CC division. One of the functions of the FtsZ ring is to recruit other CC cell division proteins to the septum to produce a new cell wall between CC the dividing cells. Binds GTP and shows GTPase activity. CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homodimer. Polymerizes to form a dynamic ring structure in a CC strictly GTP-dependent manner. Interacts directly with several other CC division proteins. CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm. Note=Assembles at midcell at the inner CC surface of the cytoplasmic membrane. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the FtsZ family.
