A novel membrane anchor for FtsZ is linked to cell wall hydrolysis in Caulobacter crescentus

In most bacteria, the tubulin-like GTPase FtsZ forms an annulus at midcell (the Z-ring) which recruits the division machinery and regulates cell wall remodeling. Although both activities require membrane attachment of FtsZ, few membrane anchors have been characterized. FtsA is considered to be the p...
