UniProt functional annotation for P51834 | ||
|
|
|
|
|
|
||
| UniProt code: P51834. |
|
||
| Organism: | |
Bacillus subtilis (strain 168). |
| Taxonomy: | |
Bacteria; Firmicutes; Bacilli; Bacillales; Bacillaceae; Bacillus. |
|
||
|
||
| Function: | |
Required for chromosome condensation and partitioning. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01894, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9573042, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9701812}. |
|
||
| Subunit: | |
Homodimer. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01894}. |
| Subcellular location: | |
Cytoplasm {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01894, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9573042}. Note=Probably associated with the nucleoid. |
| Domain: | |
Contains large globular domains required for ATP hydrolysis at each terminus and a third globular domain forming a flexible SMC hinge near the middle of the molecule. These domains are separated by coiled- coil structures. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01894}. |
| Disruption phenotype: | |
Mutants produce anucleate cells and show defects in nucleoid structure and in chromosome partitioning. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9573042, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9701812}. |
| Similarity: | |
Belongs to the SMC family. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP- Rule:MF_01894}. |
