The MinC component of the division site selection system in Escherichia coli interacts with FtsZ to prevent polymerization

Positioning of the Z ring at the midcell site in Escherichia coli is assured by the min system, which masks polar sites through topological regulation of MinC, an inhibitor of division. To study how MinC inhibits division, we have generated a MalE-MinC fusion that retains full biological activity. W...
