Disruption of divisome assembly rescued by FtsN-FtsA interaction in Escherichia coli [Microbiology]

Cell division requires the assembly of a protein complex called the divisome. The divisome assembles in a hierarchical manner, with FtsA functioning as a hub to connect the Z-ring with the rest of the divisome and FtsN arriving last to activate the machine to synthesize peptidoglycan. FtsEX arrives as the...
