Comments
[?]
| FUNCTION | Activator of cell division through the inhibition of FtsZ GTPase activity, therefore promoting FtsZ assembly into bundles of protofilaments necessary for the formation of the division Z ring. It is recruited early at mid-cell but it is not essential for cell division. |
| SUBUNIT | Homodimer. Interacts with FtsZ. |
| SUBCELLULAR LOCATION | Cytoplasm. Note=Localizes at mid-cell. In sporulating cells, localizes near the cell poles. |
| SIMILARITY | Belongs to the ZapA family. Type 2 subfamily. |
