Tubules, rods and spirals: diverse modes of SepF-FtsZ assembling

Preprint — published as 10.1002/cm.21975 · Paper page

Abstract

Z-ring formation by FtsZ, the master assembler of divisome, is a key step in bacterial cell division. Both formation and membrane anchoring of the Z-ring requires assistance of a number of Z-ring binding proteins, such as FtsA, EzrA, SepF, SepH and ZipA. SepF participates in bundling and membrane anchoring of FtsZ in gram-positive bacteria. We report in vitro biophysical studies of the interactions between FtsZ and cytoplasmic component of cognate SepF from three different bacteria: Mycobacterium tuberculosis , Staphylococcus aureus and Enterococcus gallinarum. While the cytosolic domain of SepF from M. tuberculosis is a dimer, those from S. aureus and E. gallinarum polymerize to form ring-like structures. Mycobacterial SepF helps in bundling of FtsZ filaments to form thick filaments and large spirals. On the other hand, ring-forming SepF from the Firmicutes bundle FtsZ into tubules.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
