SMART: Pfam domain FtsQ

FtsQ

PFAM accession number:	PF03799
Interpro abstract (IPR005548):	DivIB is a cell division protein from Gram-positive bacteria, probably homologous to Escherichia coli FtsQ. DivIB interacts with FtsL, DivIC and PBP-2B [ (PUBMED:16936019) (PUBMED:20870765) ]. DivIB plays an essential role in division at high temperatures, maybe by protecting FtsL from degradation or by promoting formation of the FtsL-DivIC complex [ (PUBMED:10792716) ]. It is also required for efficient sporulation at all temperatures [ (PUBMED:16936026) ]. FtsQ is an essential cell division protein. It may link together the upstream cell division proteins, which are predominantly cytoplasmic, with the downstream cell division proteins, which are predominantly periplasmic [ (PUBMED:17185541) ]. FtsQ may control the correct divisome assembly [ (PUBMED:19233928) ]. .
