In Vitro Reconstitution of the Initial Stages of the Bacterial Cell Division Machinery
2008
Journal of biological physics (Print)
Fission of many prokaryotes as well as some eukaryotic organelles depends on the self-assembly of the FtsZ protein into a membrane-associated ring structure early in the division process. ...
Different components of the machinery are then sequentially recruited. ...
Understanding the interactions between these cell division components will help control their assembly in other artificial systems such as giant liposomes that more closely mimic the curved membrane surface ...
