Interdependency and phosphorylation of KIF4 and condensin I are essential for organization of chromosome scaffold. [PDF]
Kinesin family member 4 (KIF4) and condensins I and II are essential chromosomal proteins for chromosome organization by locating primarily to the chromosome scaffold.

The localization of condensin along chromosomes is crucial for their accurate segregation in anaphase. Condensin is enriched at telomeres but how and for what purpose had remained elusive.

The human Cranio Facial Development Protein 1 (Cfdp1) gene encodes a protein required for the maintenance of higher-order chromatin organization [PDF]
The human Cranio Facial Development Protein 1 (Cfdp1) gene maps to chromosome 16q22.2-q22.3 and encodes the CFDP1 protein, which belongs to the evolutionarily conserved Bucentaur (BCNT) family.

Chromosome Segregation: Monopolin Attracts Condensin [PDF]
To segregate chromosomes properly, the cell must prevent merotely, an error that occurs when a single kinetochore is attached to microtubules emanating from both spindle poles. Recent evidence suggests that cooperation between Pcs1/Mde4 and condensin complexes plays an important role in preventing merotely.

Abstract Condensin I and condensin II are multi-subunit complexes that are known for their individual roles in genome organization and preventing genomic instability. However, interactions between condensin I and condensin II subunits and cooperative roles for condensin I and condensin II, outside of their genome organizing functions ...

Fob1-dependent condensin recruitment and loop extrusion on yeast chromosome III.
Despite recent advances in single-molecule and structural analysis of condensin activity in vitro, mechanisms of functional condensin loading and loop extrusion that lead to specific chromosomal organization remain unclear.

Cell-Cycle Regulation of Dynamic Chromosome Association of the Condensin Complex
Summary: Eukaryotic cells inherit their genomes in the form of chromosomes, which are formed from the compaction of interphase chromatin by the condensin complex. Condensin is a member of the structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC) family of ATPases,

MCPH1 inhibits Condensin II during interphase by regulating its SMC2-Kleisin interface
Dramatic change in chromosomal DNA morphology between interphase and mitosis is a defining features of the eukaryotic cell cycle. Two types of enzymes, namely cohesin and condensin confer the topology of chromosomal DNA by extruding DNA loops.

Chromatin association of the SMC5/6 complex is dependent on binding of its NSE3 subunit to DNA [PDF]
SMC5/6 is a highly conserved protein complex related to cohesin and condensin, which are the key components of higher-order chromatin structures. The SMC5/6 complex is essential for proliferation in yeast and is involved in replication fork stability and

Phosphorylation of MCPH1 isoforms during mitosis followed by isoform‐specific degradation by APC/C‐CDH1 [PDF]
Microcephalin‐1 (MCPH1) exists as 2 isoforms that regulate cyclin‐dependent kinase‐1 activation and chromosome condensation during mitosis, with MCPH1 mutations causing primary microcephaly.
