The protein

Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity

• degrades [protein|A574974B6F4FF46DC69E03AE021651C67089866F|Spo0E] and [protein|86BEE9B4DEA83B3B8EFC52EFDDC1F62314FC4291|Spo0M], resulting in reduced sporulation frequency in a ''ftsH'' mutant [Pubmed|22142536]
• [protein|4E7B9426CED372AA8A321A147116A3A589FBF20C|FtsH] is involved in the degradation of [protein|B317D7E51824DD70EF84E4D5D7290D601BF4FAB6|EzrA] [Pubmed|24222488]
• degrades [protein|7C8DFE00A2B2B30CC8BEB35055D92CC2E4128F3A|SpoIIE] [Pubmed|26465112]
