我们检查了枯草芽孢杆菌minCD突变体中FtsZ定位的模式。当在基本培养基中生长时，大多数（类似于89%）具有FtsZ环的minCD突变体细胞具有单个位于中间的FtsZ环。这些结果表明，除了minCD功能的基因，以限制FtsZ环的数量和位置。当在丰富的培养基中生长时，超过50%的minCD突变细胞具有多个FtsZ环，表明基于生长培养基的FtsZ环形成的调节存在显著差异。
We examined the pattern of FtsZ localization in a Bacillus subtilis minCD mutant, When grown in minimal medium, the majority (similar to 89%) of the minCD mutant cells with an FtsZ ring had a single, medially positioned FtsZ ring. These results indicate that genes in addition to minCD function to restrict the number and position of FtsZ rings. When grown in rich medium, greater than 50% of the minCD mutant cells had multiple FtsZ rings, indicating significant differences in regulation of FtsZ ring formation based on growth medium.
