Dewar, SJ, Begg, KJ and Donachie, WD (1992) Inhibition of cell division initiation by an imbalance in the ratio of FtsA to FtsZ. J. Bacteriol. 174:6314-6

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.
