AC MF_01805; DC Protein; auto TR HAMAP; MF_01805; -; 1; level=0 XX Names: ScpA XX ID SCPA DE RecName: Full=Segregation and condensation protein A; GN Name=scpA; XX CC -!- FUNCTION: Participates in chromosomal partition during cell division. CC May act via the formation of a condensin-like complex containing Smc CC and ScpB that pull DNA away from mid-cell into both cell halves. CC -!- SUBUNIT: Component of a cohesin-like complex composed of ScpA, ScpB and CC the Smc homodimer, in which ScpA and ScpB bind to the head domain of CC Smc. The presence of the three proteins is required for the association CC of the complex with DNA. CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm. Note=Associated with two foci at the CC outer edges of the nucleoid region in young cells, and at four foci CC within both cell halves in older cells. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the ScpA family.
