Functional Analysis of FtsA-Mediated Recruitment of FtsK in Escherichia coli
… synthesis and recruiting the DNA translocase FtsK was examined using mutational analysis in <em>Escherichia coli</em>.</p> <p>The FtsA<sup>M96E R153D </sup>variant, which has previously been shown to disrupt double-stranded (DS) filament formation, was unable to support cell division but its …

FtsK Regulates the Assembly of the Division Machinery in the FtsZ-less Chlamydia trachomatis
… that divisome assembly in Ct is initiated by FtsK, a chromosomal translocase. Chlamydial FtsK forms discrete foci at the septum and at the base of the progenitor mother cell, and our data indicate that FtsK foci at the base of the mother cell mark the location of nascent divisome complexes …

BIOLOGICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF TWO PUTATIVE DNA METABOLISM ENZYMES IN DEINOCOCCUS RADIODURANS
HerA proteins are members of the FtsK-HerA superfamily of P-loop ATPases. FtsK is a bacterial protein that translocates double-stranded DNA during cell division. In archaea, herA is an essential gene that encodes an enzyme believed to be important for recombinational DNA repair. It is typically …

Characterisation of the putative Type VII protein secretion system of <em>Streptomyces</em> spp
… that deletion of genes encoding the T7SS FtsK/SpoIIIE ATPases (FSD) resulted in delayed actinorhodin production in S. coelicolor and slightly accelerated aerial development in S. scabies. In S. scabies, deletion of the genes encoding the WXG100 proteins, canonical substrates of T7SSs, led …

Investigating the organisation and function of the membrane proteins of the Type VII secretion system in <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i>
… the largest T7 component, is a member of the FtsK/SpoIIIE family of membrane-bound ATPases that harness the energy of ATP hydrolysis with the movement of macromolecules. The aim of this thesis was to probe the organisation of the membrane-embedded components of the secretion system and to …

A streamlined Workflow for Transposon Mutagenesis in Corynebacterium glutamicum Based on Third-Generation Sequencing and its Application for Advanced Genetic Screens
… genetic screens was utilized to identify *ftsK* as a candidate for compensating the loss of function in a *C. glutamicum* MB001 *∆smc* mutant. Structural Maintenance of Chromosomes (SMC) proteins are crucial in chromosome segregation. Deletion of *smc* however, does not affect the growth of …
