GTP-Bound Escherichia coli FtsZ Filaments Are Composed of Tense Monomers: a Dynamic Nuclear Polarization-Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Study Using Interface Detection
ABSTRACT FtsZ filaments are the major structural component of the bacterial Z ring and are drivers of bacterial division. Crystal structures for FtsZ from some Gram-positive bacteria in the presence of GTP analogs suggest the possibility of a high-energy, “tense” conformation. It remains important t...
