Description | This entry represents ZapA, an activator of cell division through the inhibition of FtsZ GTPase activity, therefore promoting FtsZ assembly into bundles of protofilaments necessary for the formation of the division Z ring. ZapA is recruited early at mid-cell but it is not essential for cell division. | Name | Cell division protein ZapA, eubacteria |
Short Name | Cell_div_ZapA_eubact | Type | Family |
