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

Both Chromosome Decondensation and Condensation Are Dependent on DNA Replication in C.elegans Embryos [PDF]
, 2015 During cell division, chromatin alternates between a condensed state to facilitate chromosome segregation and a decondensed form when DNA replicates.

Condensin I reveals new insights on mouse meiotic chromosome structure and dynamics. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2007 Chromosome shaping and individualization are necessary requisites to warrant the correct segregation of genomes in either mitotic or meiotic cell divisions. These processes are mainly prompted in vertebrates by three multiprotein complexes termed cohesin

Interdependency and phosphorylation of KIF4 and condensin I are essential for organization of chromosome scaffold. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 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 Adenomatous Polyposis Coli protein contributes to normal compaction of mitotic chromatin [PDF]
, 2012 The tumour suppressor <i>Adenomatous Polyposis Coli</i> (APC) is required for proper mitosis; however, the exact role of APC in mitosis is not understood.

Cell-Cycle Regulation of Dynamic Chromosome Association of the Condensin Complex
Cell Reports, 2018 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,

A new family of bacterial condensins [PDF]
Molecular Microbiology, 2011 SummaryCondensins play a central role in global chromatin organization. In bacteria, two families of condensins have been identified, the MukBEF and SMC–ScpAB complexes. Only one of the two complexes is usually found in a given species, giving rise to a paradigm that a single condensin organizes bacterial chromosomes.

Cell Reports, 2015 Condensin is a conserved chromosomal complex necessary to promote mitotic chromosome condensation and sister chromatid resolution during anaphase. Here, we report that yeast condensin binds to replicated centromere regions.

Nucleic Acids Research, 2022 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 ...

MCPH1 inhibits Condensin II during interphase by regulating its SMC2-Kleisin interface
eLife, 2021 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.
