AC MF_01803; DC Protein; auto TR HAMAP; MF_01803; -; 1; level=0 XX Names: MukF XX ID MUKF DE RecName: Full=Chromosome partition protein MukF; GN Name=mukF; XX CC -!- FUNCTION: Involved in chromosome condensation, segregation and cell CC cycle progression. May participate in facilitating chromosome CC segregation by condensation DNA from both sides of a centrally located CC replisome during cell division. Not required for mini-F plasmid CC partitioning. Probably acts via its interaction with MukB and MukE. CC Overexpression results in anucleate cells. It has a calcium binding CC activity. CC -!- SUBUNIT: Interacts, and probably forms a ternary complex, with MukE and CC MukB via its C-terminal region. The complex formation is stimulated by CC calcium or magnesium. It is required for an interaction between MukE CC and MukB. CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm, nucleoid. Note=Restricted to the CC nucleoid region. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the MukF family.
