CC -!- FUNCTION: Enables the recognition and targeting of unfolded and
CC aggregated proteins to the ClpC protease or to other proteins involved
CC in proteolysis. Acts negatively in the development of competence by
CC binding ComK and recruiting it to the ClpCP protease. When
CC overexpressed, inhibits sporulation. Also involved in Spx degradation
CC by ClpC. {ECO:0000256|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01124}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homodimer. {ECO:0000256|ARBA:ARBA00011738, ECO:0000256|HAMAP-
CC Rule:MF_01124}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: The N-terminal domain has binding sites for ComK and probably
CC for unfolded/aggregated proteins; the C-terminal domain interacts with
CC ClpC. {ECO:0000256|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01124}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the MecA family. {ECO:0000256|ARBA:ARBA00005397,
CC ECO:0000256|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01124}.
CC -!- CAUTION: The sequence shown here is derived from an EMBL/GenBank/DDBJ
CC whole genome shotgun (WGS) entry which is preliminary data.
