Essential Role for FtsL in Activation of Septal Peptidoglycan Synthesis

ABSTRACT Spatiotemporal regulation of septal peptidoglycan (PG) synthesis is achieved by coupling assembly and activation of the synthetic enzymes (FtsWI) to the Z ring, a cytoskeletal element that is required for division in most bacteria. In Escherichia coli, the recruitment of the FtsWI complex i...
