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 ...

Taking cohesin and condensin in context.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2018
Structural maintenance of chromosome (SMC) protein complexes, including cohesin and condensin, are increasingly being recognized for their important role in cancer and development, making it critical that we understand how these evolutionarily conserved ...

MukB ATPases are regulated independently by the N- and C-terminal domains of MukF kleisin

open access: yeseLife, 2018
The Escherichia coli SMC complex, MukBEF, acts in chromosome segregation. MukBEF shares the distinctive architecture of other SMC complexes, with one prominent difference; unlike other kleisins, MukF forms dimers through its N-terminal domain.

New Symmetrical U- and Wavy-Shaped Supramolecular H-Bonded Systems; Geometrical and Mesomorphic Approaches

open access: yesMolecules, 2020
New mesomorphic symmetrical 2:1 supramolecular H-bonded complexes of seven phenyl rings were prepared between 4-n-alkoxyphenylazobenzoic acids and 4-(2-(pyridin-3-yl)diazenyl)phenyl nicotinate.

A role of the Nse4 kleisin and Nse1/Nse3 KITE subunits in the ATPase cycle of SMC5/6

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
The SMC (Structural Maintenance of Chromosomes) complexes are composed of SMC dimers, kleisin and kleisin-interacting (HAWK or KITE) subunits. Mutual interactions of these subunits constitute the basal architecture of the SMC complexes.

Condensin Smc2-Smc4 Dimers Are Flexible and Dynamic

open access: yesCell Reports, 2016
Structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC) protein complexes, including cohesin and condensin, play key roles in the regulation of higher-order chromosome organization.

Competitive binding of MatP and topoisomerase IV to the MukB hinge domain

open access: yeseLife, 2021
Structural Maintenance of Chromosomes (SMC) complexes have ubiquitous roles in compacting DNA linearly, thereby promoting chromosome organization-segregation.

Role of Structural Maintenance of Chromosomes (SMC) complexes in interphase genome folding in Caenorhabditis elegans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Recent studies have shown that the highly conserved Structural Maintenance of Chromosomes (SMC) complexes such as cohesin and condensin, are involved in organizing the interphase genome.

DNA sliding and loop formation by E. coli SMC complex: MukBEF

open access: yesBiochemistry 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.

SMC complexes and topoisomerase II work together so that sister chromatids can work apart

open access: yesCell Cycle, 2010
The pairing of sister chromatids in interphase facilitates error-free homologous recombination (HR). Sister chromatids are held together by cohesin, one of three Structural Maintenance of Chromosomes (SMC) complexes.
