CC -!- FUNCTION: Confers DNA tethering and processivity to DNA polymerases and
CC other proteins. Acts as a clamp, forming a ring around DNA (a reaction
CC catalyzed by the clamp-loading complex) which diffuses in an ATP-
CC independent manner freely and bidirectionally along dsDNA. Initially
CC characterized for its ability to contact the catalytic subunit of DNA
CC polymerase III (Pol III), a complex, multichain enzyme responsible for
CC most of the replicative synthesis in bacteria; Pol III exhibits 3'-5'
CC exonuclease proofreading activity. The beta chain is required for
CC initiation of replication as well as for processivity of DNA
CC replication. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P0A988}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Forms a ring-shaped head-to-tail homodimer around DNA which
CC binds and tethers DNA polymerases and other proteins to the DNA. The
CC DNA replisome complex has a single clamp-loading complex (3 tau and 1
CC each of delta, delta', psi and chi subunits) which binds 3 Pol III
CC cores (1 core on the leading strand and 2 on the lagging strand) each
CC with a beta sliding clamp dimer. Additional proteins in the replisome
CC are other copies of gamma, psi and chi, Ssb, DNA helicase and RNA
CC primase. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P0A988}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P0A988}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the beta sliding clamp family. {ECO:0000305}.
