Characterization of C-terminal structure of MinC and its implication in evolution of bacterial cell division

Abstract Proper cell division at the mid-site of Gram-negative bacteria reflects stringent regulation by the min system (MinC, MinD and MinE). Herein we report crystal structure of the C-terminal domain of MinC from Escherichia coli (EcMinCCTD). The MinCCTD beta helical domain is engaged in a tight...
