Inhibition of cell division initiation by an imbalance in the ratio of FtsA to FtsZ.

S J Dewar1, K J Begg, W D Donachie.   

Abstract

Elevated levels of FtsA protein block cell division at a very early stage, similar to that caused by inhibition of the action of FtsZ. In contrast, overexpression of FtsA and FtsZ together does not block division. A specific ratio of FtsA to FtsZ protein, therefore, is required for cell division.
