Protein Domain : Mid-cell-anchored protein Z IPR030858

Type  Family
Description  In Streptococcus pneumoniae, mid-cell-anchored protein Z (MapZ) forms ring structures at the cell equator and moves apart as the cell elongates, therefore behaving as a permanent beacon of division sites. During cell division, a new MapZ ring marks the future cell division site and positions tubulin-like protein FtsZ rings through direct interactions [ ]. MapZ is conserved amongst Streptococcaceae and most other Lactobacillales [].
