| Type: | Domain | Name: | Septum formation inhibitor MinC, C-terminal |
| Description: | In Escherichia coli, three Min proteins (MinC, MinD and MinE) negatively regulate FtsZ assembly at the cell poles in order to ensure the Z-ring only assembles at cell midpoint. MinC inhibits formation of the Z-ring by preventing FtsZ assembly. MinD binds to MinC near the cell poles, sequestering MinC away from the cell midpoint so the Z-ring can form there. MinC is an oligomer, probably a dimer, that consists of two domains: the N-terminal domain is responsible for FtsZ inhibition, while the C-terminal domain is responsible for binding to MinD and to a component of the division septum [, ]. | Short Name: | Septum_form_inhib_MinC_C |
