==Overview==
==Overview==
The bacterial septum-located DNA translocase FtsK coordinates circular, chromosome segregation with cell division. Rapid translocation of DNA by, FtsK is directed by 8-base-pair DNA motifs (KOPS), so that newly, replicated termini are brought together at the developing septum, thereby, facilitating completion of chromosome segregation. Translocase functions, reside in three domains, alpha, beta and gamma. FtsKalphabeta are, necessary and sufficient for ATP hydrolysis-dependent DNA translocation, which is modulated by FtsKgamma through its interaction with KOPS. By, solving the FtsKgamma structure by NMR, we show that gamma is a, winged-helix domain. NMR chemical shift mapping localizes the DNA-binding, site on the gamma domain. Mutated proteins with substitutions in the, FtsKgamma DNA-recognition helix are impaired in DNA binding and KOPS, recognition, yet remain competent in DNA translocation and XerCD-dif, site-specific recombination, which facilitates the late stages of, chromosome segregation.
