Structure and kinase activity of bacterial cell cycle regulator CcrZ.

CcrZ is a recently discovered cell cycle regulator that connects DNA replication initiation with cell division in pneumococci and may have a similar function in related bacteria. CcrZ is also annotated as a putative kinase, suggesting that CcrZ homologs could represent a novel family of bacterial ki...
