Structure of the heterotrimeric membrane protein complex FtsB-FtsL-FtsQ of the bacterial divisome
The FtsB-FtsL-FtsQ complex is essential for regulating cell wall synthesis during bacterial cell division. Here, authors report the full-length trimeric structure showing a tilted V-shaped conformation and suggest an allosteric regulatory mechanism.
