The Assembly Switch Mechanism of FtsZ Filament Revealed by All-Atom Molecular Dynamics Simulations and Coarse-Grained Models

Bacterial cytoskeletal protein FtsZ binds and hydrolyzes GTP, and assembles into dynamic filaments that are essential for cell division. Here, we used a multi-scale computational strategy that combined all-atom molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and coarse-grained models to reveal the conformationa...
