Spatial Chromatin Organization Across the Cell Cycle: Insights from Auxin-Inducible Protein Depletion

open access: yesCells
Many cellular processes, including gene expression regulation, DNA replication and repair, as well as proper condensation and segregation of chromosomes, require highly coordinated remodeling of chromatin.

SMC proteins and chromosome mechanics: from bacteria to humans

open access: yes, 2005
Chromosome cohesion and condensation are essential prerequisites of proper segregation of genomes during mitosis and meiosis, and are supported by two structurally related protein complexes, cohesin and condensin, respectively.

Molecular mechanism of condensin I activation by KIF4A

open access: yesThe EMBO Journal
During mitosis, the condensin I and II complexes compact chromatin into chromosomes. Loss of the chromokinesin, KIF4A, results in reduced condensin I association with chromosomes, but the molecular mechanism behind this phenotype is unknown.

A phospho-switch to trigger mitotic chromosome condensation

open access: yesBiology Direct
One of the most eye-catching events in cell biology is the condensation of chromosomes. During mitosis, the diffuse interphase chromatin rearranges into compact, rod-shaped chromosomes that can be precisely segregated between the daughter cells.

Condensin Architecture and Interaction with DNA Regulatory Non-SMC Subunits Bind to the Head of SMC Heterodimer

open access: yes, 2002
Condensin and cohesin are two protein complexes that act as the central mediators of chromosome condensation and sister chromatid cohesion, respectively. The basic underlying mechanism of action of these complexes remained enigmatic. Direct visualization

An extrinsic motor directs chromatin loop formation by cohesin

open access: yesThe EMBO Journal
The ring-shaped cohesin complex topologically entraps two DNA molecules to establish sister chromatid cohesion. Cohesin also shapes the interphase chromatin landscape with wide-ranging implications for gene regulation, and cohesin is thought to achieve ...
