CC   -!- FUNCTION: Required for post-transcription initiation control of the
CC       comE operon. Promotes the accumulation of its target comE mRNA to
CC       septal and polar sites. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19028902,
CC       ECO:0000269|PubMed:22582279}.
CC   -!- SUBUNIT: Interacts directly with DivIVA. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22582279}.
CC   -!- INTERACTION:
CC       O32049; P71021: divIVA; NbExp=4; IntAct=EBI-6418652, EBI-5243654;
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22582279}.
CC       Note=Localizes to the division site and cell poles, in a DivIVA-
CC       dependent manner. Polar localization is not essential for competence
CC       development.
CC   -!- DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE: Disruption results in severely reduced
CC       transformation frequency, but has no detectable effect on either the
CC       frequency or the location of division septa.
