Abstract
FtsZ, a tubulin homologue and the major constituent of the bacterial Z ring, hasbeen shown to assemble into curved filament bundles, which exhibit GTP-hydrolysis-dependent turnover. Surprisingly, the presence of its membrane adaptor FtsA renders this turnover directional, inducing treadmilling and collective circular motion of filaments invitro.
