Z-ring membrane anchors associate with cell wall synthases to initiate bacterial cell division
Proteins FtsZ, ZipA, and either PBP1A or PBP1B are required for the synthesis of preseptal peptidoglycan at the future cell division site in E. coli. Here, Pazos et al. provide evidence that ZipA and FtsA-FtsN connect the cytosolic FtsZ ring with the membrane-anchored PBPs.
