Protein name |
RecName:
|
Full=Cell division protein ZapA;
|
AltName:
|
Full=Z ring-associated protein ZapA;
|
|
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. |
General |
Coiled_coil; -; 1-unlimited; trigger=yes; |
