Figure 3. ATP hydrolysis by Dr-FtsA and Dr-FtsZ in different combinations.

Figure 3

Purified recombinant Dr-FtsA and Dr-FtsZ were incubated with GTP and [α32P]-ATP substrate in different combinations. [α32P]-ATP ([32P]α ATP) hydrolysis to [α32P]-ADP ([32P]α ADP) in different samples (1–6) was monitored on TLC and autoradiogram was developed. Conversion of [α32P]-ATP into [α32P]-ADP was compared with recombinant DR1775 having ATPase activity as positive control (C) as described in methods (A). Band intensities of samples (1–6) corresponding to panel A were determined densitometrically, ATP/ADP ratios were calculated and plotted as histograms (B).
