DNA sliding and loop formation by E. coli SMC complex: MukBEF [PDF]
Biochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 2022 SMC (structural maintenance of chromosomes) complexes share conserved architectures and function in chromosome maintenance via an unknown mechanism. Here we have used single-molecule techniques to study MukBEF, the SMC complex in Escherichia coli.

The Plant Journal, Volume 115, Issue 4, Page 1084-1099, August 2023., 2023 Significance Statement The understanding of the role of the structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC) 5/6 complexes in plants, particularly of the NSE5 and NSE6 subunits, is poor. We identified a previously unrecognized NSE6 motif mediating interaction with NSE5 and mapped the Physcomitrium patens PpNSE6‐binding site at the PpSMC5 arm. These findings
