Abstract

Of all the proteins involved in prokaryotic cell division FtsZ is one of the earliest acting and most widely distributed, being found in all but a few species. We discuss several recent discoveries of FtsZ in eukaryotic cells and the protein's role in the division of chloroplasts and mitochondria, organelles that are of bacterial origin.

摘要

在所有参与原核细胞分裂的蛋白质中，FtsZ是最早发挥作用且分布最广泛的蛋白质之一，几乎在所有物种中都能找到，只有少数物种除外。我们讨论了FtsZ在真核细胞中的一些最新发现，以及该蛋白质在叶绿体和线粒体（起源于细菌的细胞器）分裂中的作用。
