The interplay of membrane tension and FtsZ filament condensation on the initiation and progression of cell division in B. subtilis

1 month ago | biorxiv.org | Diego A. Ramirez-Diaz |Lei Yin |Daniela Albanesi |Jenny Zheng

AbstractThe first step of cell division is deforming the planar cell membrane inward towards the cytoplasm. As deforming membranes is energetically costly, biology has developed various protein systems to accomplish this task. The mechanisms providing the force to deform bacterial membranes to initiate division remain unknown.
