A Novel Z-Ring Associated Protein ZapA-Like Protein (PA5407) From Pseudomonas aeruginosa Promotes FtsZ to Form Double Filaments
Bacterial cell division is initiated by the assembly of the contraction ring (Z-ring), which consists of the self-assembled FtsZ protofilaments and dozens of other associate proteins. ZapA, a regulatory protein found in almost all bacteria, stabilizes FtsZ protofilaments to form bundles and enhances...
