This entry represents the C-terminal dimerisation domain found in ParB proteins. The ParB family proteins are key players in bacterial chromosome partitioning, a critical process for cell division and genetic material distribution. Members of the ParB family are involved in recognizing and binding to specific DNA sequences at the origin of replication. They localise to the cell poles after DNA replication is complete, ensuring proper segregation of chromosomes into daughter cells during cell division. These proteins may interact with other partitioning proteins and DNA sites to facilitate the orderly distribution of chromosomes.
