DNA fragments encoding the ftsA gene were subcloned into plasmids downstream of a lac promoter or a tac promoter. These plasmid constructs, when transformed into wild-type and mutant strains, inhibited normal cell septation, causing the formation of long nonseptate filaments. This phenotype is due to overproduction of the FtsA protein.
编码ftsA基因的DNA片段被亚克隆到位于lac启动子或tac启动子下游的质粒中。当将这些质粒构建体转化到野生型和突变菌株中时,会抑制正常的细胞分裂,导致形成长的无隔膜丝状体。这种表型是由于FtsA蛋白的过量产生所致。
