Comments [?]

Function Cytoskeletal protein that is involved in cell-shape control through regulation of the length of the long axis.
Subcellular location Cell inner membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein. Note=Forms helical filaments along the long axis of the cell.
Domain The helix-turn-helix (HTH) motif in the cytoplasmic domain of the N-terminus is involved in the formation of spirals to maintain the rigid rod shape. As this protein is anchored in the cytoplasmic membrane, the HTH motif may contribute to protein-protein interactions to form the RodZ helix, which is localized beneath the cytoplasmic membrane. The C-terminal domain may be critical for determination of the rod shape by probably interacting with enzymes required for synthesis of the peptidoglycan layer, including PBPs in the periplasm.
Similarity Belongs to the RodZ family.
