| Description | FtsX is an integral membrane protein encoded in the same operon as signal recognition particle docking protein FtsY and FtsE. FtsE is a hydrophilic nucleotide-binding protein that associates with the inner membrane by means of association with FtsX; FtsE mutants are viable only in high salt, supporting possible roles in cell division, as previously indicated, or in transport [ ]. FtsX is important for bacterial cell division, however its precise function is not yet known [, ]. FtsX is involved in sporulation in the Gram-positive bacterium Bacillus subtilis []. |
