Chloroplast division in plant cells uses proteins from both the prokaryotic and eukaryotic ancestors. The prokaryotic derived proteins include FtsZ, the progenitor oftubulin. When bacteria only use one FtsZ protein to divide, chloroplasts in higher plants use two distinct FtsZ proteins: FtsZI and FtsZ2. The characterization of FtsZ Arabidopsis thaliana mutants shows that plant FtsZ proteins in addition to be involved in plastid division have gained new functions in plant development during evolution. The observation that association of plastid FtsZ with thylakoid membranes is developmentally regulated suggests a function of FtsZ proteins during leaf development in chloroplast biogenesis. The number and size of starch granules in mutants tog...
