Q 
The \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ is a group of proteins needed for DNA synthesis that assembles at the origin of replication.
A) septum
B) replisome
C) prospore
D) None of the choices are correct.
A

replisome

22
Q 
The site at which replication of DNA starts in bacterial cells is known as the \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_.
A) origin of replication
B) initiation center
C) replication initiation site
D) start complex
A

a) origin of replication

23
Q

•Genome replication time is independent or dependent of generation time (E Coli)

A

independent==means they will work separate

24
Q

septum formation

A

inward growth of cytoplasmic membrane and cell wall

before cell wall separates into two cell

25
Q

Site of septum formation minCDE

A

Limits z ring formation

oscillate between cell poles

26
Q 
During cytokinesis, a critical step in septation is the assembly of the \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_.
A) replisome
B) spindle body
C) Z ring
D) cytoskeletal spiral
A

C) Z ring

27
Q

Only place Z ring forms

A

mid cell, where there is no minCDE

28
Q

What is the MinCDE?

A

prevent the formation of the Z-ring at poles by oscillating from pole to pole
leaves middle open

29
Q

What does level high minC at poles do

A

blocks septum formation

30
Q

What does minD do

A

forms filaments and interacts with plasma membrane

31
Q

what does minE do

A

controls min D oscillation,
directs FtsZ ring formation
divisome complex

32
Q

Why does Z ring form at mid cell only.

A

No min CDE

33
Q

What happens with nucleoid occlusion for septum formation

A

prevents premature septum formation

Z ring forms after most daughter chromosomes separate

34
Q

T/F most daughter chromosomes form before z ring forms

A

True

35
Q

The site of septum formation in E. coli is determined by the MinCDE proteins. Which of the following statements regarding the positioning of the septum are correct?

A

The concentration of MinCDE proteins is lowest in the midpoint of the cell.

36
Q

Which of the following statements regarding FtsZ are correct?

A
  • FtsZ localization determines the site of cell wall growth by recruiting PBPs for peptidoglycan synthesis.
  • FtsZ polymerizes to form the Z ring that determines the site of septum formation.

see slide 7

37
Q

MinCDE forms Z ring that determines

A

site for septum formation

38
Q

Divisome

A

The division of bacterial cell begins

39
Q

What is the divisome?

A

division apparatus in the cell formed by Fts proteins

40
Q

4 steps of septum formation

A

site for septum formation
assemble z ring
form cell division apparatus/machine (divisome)
Constriction of z-ring, septum forms

41

45
Q

FtsW/FtsI

A

peptidoglycan synthesis in septum

46
Q

FtsN, FtsQLB

A

Coordinate ring constriction with septum growth

47
Q

What happens when FtsZ breaks down

A

cell division occurs

48
Q

FtsZ functions like and is related to

A

polymerizes to form filaments
depolymerizes to constrict cell
Hydrolyze GTP
Highly conserved

49
Q

What is FtsZ related to?

A

tubulin

50
Q

Provides energy for polymerization/depolymerization (assembly/disassembly) of FtsZ ring

A

Hydrolyzes GTP

51
Q

Highly conserved FtsZ

A

-Found in almost all eubacteria, most archaea, and organelles of eukaryotes

52
Q
