CC   -!- FUNCTION: Activator of cell division through the inhibition of FtsZ
CC       GTPase activity, therefore promoting FtsZ assembly into bundles of
CC       protofilaments necessary for the formation of the division Z ring. It
CC       is recruited early at mid-cell but it is not essential for cell
CC       division. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_02012}.
CC   -!- SUBUNIT: Homodimer. Interacts with FtsZ. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-
CC       Rule:MF_02012}.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_02012}.
CC       Note=Localizes at mid-cell. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_02012}.
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the ZapA family. Type 1 subfamily.
CC       {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_02012}.
