Structural Analysis of the Interaction between the Bacterial Cell Division Proteins FtsQ and FtsB

ABSTRACT Most bacteria and archaea use the tubulin homologue FtsZ as its central organizer of cell division. In Gram-negative Escherichia coli bacteria, FtsZ recruits cytosolic, transmembrane, periplasmic, and outer membrane proteins, assembling the divisome that facilitates bacterial cell division....
