SMART: Pfam domain MukF

MukF_M

PFAM accession number:	PF17192
Interpro abstract (IPR033440):	This entry represents the middle coiled-coil domain of MukF [ (PUBMED:15902272) ]. MukF is involved in chromosome condensation, segregation and cell cycle progression. MukE along with MukF interact with MukB in vivo forming a complex, which is required for chromosome condensation and segregation in Escherichia coli [ (PUBMED:10545099) ]. The Muk complex appears to be similar to the SMC-ScpA-ScpB complex in other prokaryotes where MukB is the homologue of SMC [ (PUBMED:12065423) ].
