Primary Identifier | IPR023093 | Type | Homologous_superfamily |
Short Name | ScpA-like_C |
description | This superfamily represents a conserved C-terminal region found in bacterial segregation and condensation protein A (ScpA) as well as in eukaryotic cohesins of the Rad21 and Scc1 families. ScpA participates in chromosomal partition during cell division. It may act via the formation of a condensin-like complex containing Smc and ScpB that pull DNA away from mid-cell into both cell halves. |
