Isolation, characterization and lipid-binding properties of the recalcitrant FtsA division protein from Escherichia coli.
We have obtained milligram amounts of highly pure Escherichia coli division protein FtsA from inclusion bodies with an optimized purification method that, by overcoming the reluctance of FtsA to be purified, surmounts a bottleneck for the analysis of the molecular basis of FtsA function. Purified Ft...
