FtsZ protofilaments use a hinge-opening mechanism for constrictive force generation

The essential bacterial protein FtsZ is a GTPase that self-assembles into a structure at the division site termed the “Z-ring”. During cytokinesis, the Z-ring exerts a constrictive force on the membrane by utilizing the chemical energy of GTP hydrolysis. However, the structural basis of this constri...
