The N-Terminal Membrane-Spanning Domain of the <named-content content-type="genus-species">Escherichia coli</named-content> DNA Translocase FtsK Hexamerizes at Midcell
ABSTRACT Bacterial FtsK plays a key role in coordinating cell division with the late stages of chromosome segregation. The N-terminal membrane-spanning domain of FtsK is required for cell division, whereas the C-terminal domain is a fast double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) translocase that brings the replic...
