Screening of potential inhibitor for FtsZ gtpase activity from plants collected in central of Vietnam

FtsZ is conserved in almost all bacteria and is an essential protein for bacterial cell division. The cell division is prevented by the inhibitors against FtsZ’s functions. Thus, FtsZ is known as an attractive, and underexploited novel antibacterial target protein. The aim of this research is searching for new antibacterial agents from 72 plants collected in Central Vietnam.
