OX NCBI_TaxID=354; RN [1] RP NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCE [GENOMIC DNA], AND CHARACTERIZATION. RC STRAIN=DJ116; RX MEDLINE=98267010; PubMed=9605973; RX DOI=10.1002/(SICI)1097-0169(1998)40:1<71::AID-CM7>3.3.CO;2-Z; RA Lu C., Stricker J., Erickson H.P.; RT "FtsZ from Escherichia coli, Azotobacter vinelandii, and Thermotoga RT maritima -- quantitation, GTP hydrolysis, and assembly."; RL Cell Motil. Cytoskeleton 40:71-86(1998). CC -!- FUNCTION: This protein is essential to the cell-division process. CC It seems to assemble into a dynamic ring on the inner surface of CC the cytoplasmic membrane at the place where division will occur, CC and the formation of the ring is the signal for septation to CC begin. Binds to and hydrolyzes GTP. CC -!- SUBUNIT: Aggregates to form a ring-like structure. CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm. Assembles at the inner surface of CC the cytoplasmic membrane (By similarity). CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the ftsZ family.
