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. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01124}.
CC   -!- SUBUNIT: Homodimer. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01124}.
CC   -!- DOMAIN: The N-terminal domain probably binds unfolded/aggregated
CC       proteins; the C-terminal domain interacts with ClpC.
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the MecA family. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-
CC       Rule:MF_01124}.
