"Involved in control of chromosome replication initiation. Inhibits the cooperative binding of DnaA to the oriC region, thus negatively regulating initiation of chromosome replication. Inhibits the ability of DnaA-ATP to form a helix on DNA; does not disassemble preformed DnaA-DNA helices. Decreases the residence time of DnaA on the chromosome at its binding sites (oriC, replication forks and promoter-binding sites). Tethers DnaA to the replication machinery via the DNA polymerase beta sliding clamp subunit (dnaN). Associates with oriC and other DnaA targets on the chromosome in a DnaA-dependent manner."xsd:string
