In vivo Analysis of the Role of FtsZ1 and FtsZ2 Proteins in Chloroplast Division in Arabidopsis thaliana

Chloroplasts divide by a constrictive fission process that is regulated by FtsZ proteins. Given the importance of photosynthesis and chloroplasts in general, it is important to understand the mechanisms and molecular biology of chloroplast division. An FtsZ gene is known to be of prokaryotic origin...
