CC   -!- FUNCTION: Required for the formation of axial filaments and for
CC       anchoring the origin regions at the cell poles in sporulating cells,
CC       thus ensuring proper chromosome segregation in the prespore. Binds in a
CC       dispersed manner throughout the chromosome but preferentially to sites
CC       clustered in the origin portion of the chromosome, causing condensation
CC       of the chromosome and its remodeling into an elongated, anchored
CC       structure.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm. Note=Localizes to cell poles and
CC       nucleoid.
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the RacA family.
