Cohesin architecture and clustering in vivo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Cohesin helps mediate sister chromatid cohesion, chromosome condensation, DNA repair, and transcription regulation. We exploited proximity-dependent labeling to define the in vivo interactions of cohesin domains with DNA or with other cohesin domains ...

Unique Organization of Extracellular Amylases into Amylosomes in the Resistant Starch-Utilizing Human Colonic Firmicutes Bacterium Ruminococcus bromii

open access: yesmBio, 2015
Ruminococcus bromii is a dominant member of the human gut microbiota that plays a key role in releasing energy from dietary starches that escape digestion by host enzymes via its exceptional activity against particulate “resistant” starches.

Molecular basis for SMC rod formation and its dissolution upon DNA binding. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
SMC condensin complexes are central modulators of chromosome superstructure in all branches of life. Their SMC subunits form a long intramolecular coiled coil, which connects a constitutive "hinge" dimerization domain with an ATP-regulated "head ...

Different NIPBL requirements of cohesin-STAG1 and cohesin-STAG2. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Cohesin organizes the genome through the formation of chromatin loops. NIPBL activates cohesin's ATPase and is essential for loop extrusion, but its requirement for cohesin loading is unclear.

Nuclear Import and Export Signals of Human Cohesins SA1/STAG1 and SA2/STAG2 Expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background: Human SA/STAG proteins, homologues of the yeast Irr1/Scc3 cohesin, are the least studied constituents of the sister chromatid cohesion complex crucial for proper chromosome segregation.

PDS5 proteins are required for proper cohesin dynamics and participate in replication fork protection. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Cohesin is a chromatin-bound complex that mediates sister chromatid cohesion and facilitates long-range interactions through DNA looping. How the transcription and replication machineries deal with the presence of cohesin on chromatin remains unclear ...

Meiosis I chromosome segregation is established through regulation of microtubule–kinetochore interactions

open access: yeseLife, 2012
During meiosis, a single round of DNA replication is followed by two consecutive rounds of nuclear divisions called meiosis I and meiosis II. In meiosis I, homologous chromosomes segregate, while sister chromatids remain together.

Phosphorylation of Rec8 cohesin complexes regulates mono-orientation of kinetochores in meiosis I

open access: yesLife Science Alliance
Phosphorylation of the Rec8 cohesin complexes plays a crucial role in establishing mono-orientation of sister kinetochores which is important for reductional division in meiosis I in fission yeast. In meiosis I, unlike in mitosis, sister kinetochores are

Roles of meiotic and mitotic cohesin in stem cell gene regulation and genome stability

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids
Cohesin, a ring-shaped SMC complex, mediates sister-chromatid cohesion, DNA repair, and genome folding via loop extrusion. Pluripotent and somatic cells were thought to rely solely on mitotic cohesin (SMC1A, SMC3, RAD21, STAG1/STAG2), while meiosis ...

VEZF1 elements mediate protection from DNA methylation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
There is growing consensus that genome organization and long-range gene regulation involves partitioning of the genome into domains of distinct epigenetic chromatin states.
