Comments [?]

Function	Required for spatial organization of the terminus region of the chromosome (Ter macrodomain) during the cell cycle. Prevents early segregation of duplicated Ter macrodomains during cell division. Binds specifically to matS, which is a 13 bp signature motif repeated within the Ter macrodomain.
Subunit	Homodimer.
Subcellular location	Cytoplasm.
Similarity	Belongs to the MatP family.
