'''Cell Division Protein FtsZ''' (Ftsz) is the prokaryotic homolog of tubulin. Ftsz assembles into a ring at the site of the septum in bacterial cell division. Ftsz stands for Filamenting Temperature-Sensitive mutant Z. Ftsz can bind GTP and hydrolyze it to GDP<ref>PMID:15558053</ref>. '''ZapA, ZapB, ZapC''' (Z-Associated Protein) are regulators which modulate the dynamics of the FtsZ ring at midcell division site<ref>PMID:21216995</ref>.
