Structure–function analysis of the extracellular domain of the pneumococcal cell division site positioning protein MapZ
Placement of the bacterial division site is crucial for the creation of identical daughter cells. Here, the authors solve the structure of the MapZ protein, which helps to position the cell division protein FtsZ at the cell centre, and further analyse the function of the protein in vivo.
