Protein
Cell division protein SepF
Organism
Micrococcus luteus (strain ATCC 4698 / DSM 20030 / JCM 1464 / NBRC 3333 / NCIMB 9278 / NCTC 2665 / VKM Ac-2230)
Function
Cell division protein that is part of the divisome complex and is recruited early to the Z-ring. Probably stimulates Z-ring formation, perhaps through the cross-linking of FtsZ protofilaments. Its function overlaps with FtsA.
Similarity
Belongs to the SepF family.
