FTSZ DIMER, EMPTY (M. JANNASCHII)
Overview
The prokaryotic tubulin homolog FtsZ polymerizes into a ring structure, essential for bacterial cell division. We have used refolded FtsZ to, crystallize a tubulin-like protofilament. The N- and C-terminal domains of, two consecutive subunits in the filament assemble to form the GTPase site, with the C-terminal domain providing water-polarizing residues. A, domain-swapped structure of FtsZ and biochemical data on purified N- and, C-terminal domains show that they are independent. This leads to a model, of how FtsZ and tubulin polymerization evolved by fusing two domains. In, polymerized tubulin, the nucleotide-binding pocket is occluded, which, leads to nucleotide exchange being the rate-limiting step and to dynamic, instability. In our FtsZ filament structure the nucleotide is, ... [(full description)]
