Cell shape-independent FtsZ dynamics in synthetically remodeled bacterial cells
The FtsZ protein assembles into a structure known as ‘Z-ring’ at midcell for bacterial cell division. Here, Söderström et al. show that Z-ring assembly and dynamics in E. coli cells with unnatural shapes, such as squares and hearts, are generally similar to those observed in cells with normal shape....

| Sumario: | The FtsZ protein assembles into a structure known as ‘Z-ring’ at midcell for bacterial cell division. Here, Söderström et al. show that Z-ring assembly and dynamics in E. coli cells with unnatural shapes, such as squares and hearts, are generally similar to those observed in cells with normal shape. |
