Propagated annotation [?]

Identifier, protein and gene names [?]

Identifier NOC
Protein name RecName: Full=Nucleoid occlusion protein;
                 Short=Noc;
Gene name Name=noc;

Comments [?]

FUNCTIONEffects nucleoid occlusion by binding relatively nonspecifically to DNA and preventing the assembly of the division machinery in the vicinity of the nucleoid, especially under conditions that disturb the cell cycle. It helps to coordinate cell division and chromosome segregation by preventing the formation of the Z ring through the nucleoid, which would cause chromosome breakage.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATIONCytoplasm, nucleoid.
SIMILARITYBelongs to the ParB family.
