Fig. 5. — Modeling the effect of FtsZ^L272E on FtsZ polymer length and the effect of increasing FtsZ and decreasing GTPase activity on suppressing FtsZ^L272E toxicity. (A) Treadmilling model for FtsZ was used to assess the effect of FtsZ^L272E on FtsZ filament length with FtsZ polymer-length distribution as a function of the ratio of FtsZ^L272E to FtsZ. The fourth panel plots the average polymer length versus the FtsZ^L272E-to-FtsZ ratio. (B) Increasing FtsZ and reducing GTPase activity suppress the toxicity of FtsZ^L272E. JS238/pSD334-L272E (pEXT22, P_tac::ftsZ^L272E) containing plasmids expressing ftsZ (pBEF0), ftsZ^D212G (pBEF2), or a vector control (pGB2) was subjected to a spot test on plates with increasing IPTG.
