Phenotypes of a mutant
essential [Pubmed|12682299]
terminal phenotype of a CRISPRi knockdown mutant is moderate lysis [Pubmed|27238023]
''[gene|0136394A52759CEEDD8DE074ED74033C6FFB8435|smc]'' mutants are not viable on complex medim that allow rapid growth, but they are viable under conditions of slow growth [Pubmed|24440399,24440393]
''[gene|0136394A52759CEEDD8DE074ED74033C6FFB8435|smc]'' lethality on complex medim can be suppressed by inactivation of ''[gene|0C76CAE27ACEBC0FF6B864B9F8C7D3C41C8D2A24|tmcAL]'' and ''[gene|EA155B3BEB9EAC97114058E23B6D8CDF8823A602|tsaC]'' (constitutive [wiki|stringent response]) [Pubmed|26539825]

The protein
Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity
ATPase activity, cycles of ATP hydrolysis are used by the [wiki|condensin] complex to extrude DNA loops [pubmed|30100265]
Protein family
SMC family (with [protein|ED825D5B3290BA8F9C92477B1FCC433ADB3C8449|sbcC], according to UniProt)
[wiki|Domains]
SMC hinge domain (aa 519-637) (according to UniProt)
Structure
[PDB|3ZGX] (complex between the head domain of [protein|0136394A52759CEEDD8DE074ED74033C6FFB8435|smc] (aa 1 - 219 and 983 - 1186) and the N-terminal winged-helix domain of [protein|8DD968C97FDC0E81293887E2FCB7EE1A9416A333|scpA]) [Pubmed|23353789]
[AF|P51834]
Effectors of protein activity
ATP-induced DNA-binding results in a more open conformation of the [protein|0136394A52759CEEDD8DE074ED74033C6FFB8435|smc] dimer, and thus of the [wiki|condensin] complex [Pubmed|25557547]
[wiki|Localization]
Nucleoid (heterogeneous) [pubmed|16479537]
The [wiki|condensin] ([protein|0136394A52759CEEDD8DE074ED74033C6FFB8435|smc])2-[protein|8DD968C97FDC0E81293887E2FCB7EE1A9416A333|scpA]-[protein|9137D162E6331E2B127472BCF5F49A9AE46266F3|scpB] complex is loaded by [protein|EF4BD49FCD49EE97908973581478951C8FA196C0|parB] to parS centromeric sites adjacent to the replication origin, travels then from the origin to the terminus at rates >50 kb per minute [pubmed|28154080],[pubmed|24440393],[pubmed|23475963]
