We have created FtsZ‐YFP‐mts where an amphipathic helix on the C‐terminus tethers FtsZ to the membrane. When incorporated inside multi‐lamellar tubular liposomes, FtsZ‐YFP‐mts can assemble Z rings that generate a constriction force. When added to the outside of liposomes, FtsZ‐YFP‐mts bound and produced concave depressions, bending the membrane in...
