Regarding bacterial cell division, which set of proteins ensure that the division septum (divisome) always froms in the middle of the cell?
Fts proteins
Min proteins
NO proteins
MreB proteins
| a. | Fts proteins | |
| b. | Min proteins | |
| c. | NO proteins | |
| d. | MreB proteins |
Solution
Fts proteins:
A series of events results in the assembly of a large group of proteins into a ring where a constriction occurs between two daughter cells. This ring structure and its component parts are called a divisome. The cell wall peptidoglycan of E. coli and other gram-negative bacteria is extended by a process of intercalation of new wall material orchestrated by a large number of enzymes.
The following events occur bacterial cell division regarding the division septum (divisome) always forms in the middle of the cell, which includes the set of proteins that involves
Fts proteins.
