Cell division protein FtsZ: running rings around bacteria, chloroplasts and mitochondria.

P R Gilson1, P L Beech.   

Abstract

Of all the proteins involved in prokaryotic cell division FtsZ is one of the earliest acting and most widely distributed, being found in all but a few species. We discuss several recent discoveries of FtsZ in eukaryotic cells and the protein's role in the division of chloroplasts and mitochondria, organelles that are of bacterial origin.
