MukF middle domain
The kicA and kicB genes are found upstream of mukB. It has been suggested that the kicB gene encodes a killing factor and the kicA gene codes for a protein that suppresses the killing function of the kicB gene product [1]. It was also demonstrated that KicA and KicB can function as a post-segregational killing system, when the genes are transferred from the E. coli chromosome onto a plasmid [1]. [1]. 7513784.

MukF C-terminal domain
This presumed domain is found at the C-terminus of the MukF protein. (from Pfam)
MukF winged-helix domain
chromosome partition protein MukF
Acts with MukB and MukE to condense the chromosome and allow for segregation during cell division
chromosome partition protein MukF, together with MukB and MukE, plays an important role in chromosome condensation and segregation during cell division
