“…Furthermore, we investigated the interaction of these isoforms in vivo, and visualised both FtsZ isoforms in E. coli cells individually and in combination without potential interaction partners. Different bacterial FtsZ (e.g., B. subtilis FtsZ and E. coli FtsZ, Król & Scheffers, 2013;Agrobacterium tumefaciens FtsZ, Howell et al, 2019;Synechococcus elongatus, Porter et al, 2023), archaeal FtsZ (Haloferax volcanii;Liao et al, 2021;Ithurbide et al, 2022), and plant FtsZ (Arabidopsis, Porter et al, 2021;Porter et al, 2023) were already investigated regarding their assembly and biochemical properties. Here, we provide insights into the GTP-dependent polymerization and the assembly properties of FtsZ1-2 and FtsZ2-1 of the moss Physcomitrella.…”
