Spo13 regulates cohesin cleavage [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
A key aspect of meiotic chromosome segregation is that cohesin, the protein complex that holds sister chromatids together, dissociates from chromosome arms during meiosis I and from centromeric regions during meiosis II.

Stem Cell Differentiation Disperses Transcriptional Clusters via a Conserved Surface‐Condensate Trajectory

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Stem cell differentiation follows a conserved surface condensate trajectory: H3K27ac super enhancers nucleate large RNA polymerase II clusters that grow and unfold before transcriptional activity disperses them. This work reveals how biophysical forces at enhancer surfaces dynamically build and dismantle stem cell transcription hubs, reshaping cell ...

The multifaceted roles of cohesin in cancer

open access: yesJournal of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research, 2022
AbstractThe cohesin complex controls faithful chromosome segregation by pairing sister chromatids after DNA replication until mitosis. In addition, it is crucial for hierarchal three-dimensional organization of the genome, transcription regulation and maintaining DNA integrity.

A single cohesin complex performs mitotic and meiotic functions in the protist tetrahymena.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2013
The cohesion of sister chromatids in the interval between chromosome replication and anaphase is important for preventing the precocious separation, and hence nondisjunction, of chromatids.

eEF1G Orchestrates Translation to Ensure Meiotic Progression in Transcriptionally Quiescent Spermatocytes

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
eEF1G supports translation elongation of meiotic mRNAs in transcriptionally quiescent leptotene and zygotene spermatocytes. Its depletion in germ cells causes meiotic arrest at the zygotene stage, with defective homologous synapsis and unstable recombination intermediates.

Current Challenges of Transcription Compartmentalization Research

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Transcription factors, coactivators, and RNA polymerase II assemble into transcription compartments ranging from small, defined complexes to liquid‐like condensates. This review unifies these seemingly competing descriptions along a single continuum and asks what these compartments have been shown to do, and what they have not, revealing that the most ...

Cohesin-independent STAG proteins interact with RNA and R-loops and promote complex loading

open access: yeseLife, 2023
Most studies of cohesin function consider the Stromalin Antigen (STAG/SA) proteins as core complex members given their ubiquitous interaction with the cohesin ring.

Myelodysplastic Syndromes: 2026 Update on Diagnosis, Risk‐Stratification and Management

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Disease Overview The myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are a heterogeneous group of myeloid disorders characterized by peripheral blood cytopenias and increased risk of transformation to acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). MDS occurs more frequently in older males and in individuals with prior exposure to cytotoxic therapy.

Cohesin's cohesion [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Cell Biology, 2001
![Graphic][1] Cohesin (red) keeps centromeres together. Peters/AAAS Cohesin was a long sought-after protein complex: a glue for sister chromatids that is dissolved at the onset of anaphase thanks to cleavage of its SCC1 subunit by the protease separase.

Recent advances in cohesin biology [PDF]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2016
Sister chromatids are tethered together from the time they are formed in S-phase until they separate at anaphase. A protein complex called cohesin is responsible for holding the sister chromatids together and serves important roles in chromosome condensation, gene regulation, and the repair of DNA damage.
