FtsZ assembles the bacterial cell division machinery by a diffusion-and-capture mechanism

N. Baranova, P. Radler, V. M. Hernandez-Rocamora, C. Alfonso, M. Lopez-Pelegrin, G. Rivas, W. Vollmer, M. Loose

The paper shows FtsZ treadmilling recruits divisome proteins via diffusion-and-capture, explaining how the Z-ring dynamically assembles the bacterial cell division machinery.
