Abstract

During cytokinesis in eubacteria a circumferential invagination of the cytoplasmic membrane and the peptidoglycan layer results in partitioning of the cytoplasm in two compartments. The invagination is accomplished by the synthesis of new cell wall material forming a circumferential ring at the division site. In rod-shaped bacteria, formation of the new cell wall is accomplished by a switch of the active sites of peptidoglycan synthesis, resulting in repression of lateral wall elongation and start of septum formation (Nanninga 1991). It is obvious that cell wall formation is under precise topological and temporal control (Donachie and Robinson 1987). The FtsZ protein occupies a key function during septum formation.
