MCPH1 inhibits Condensin II during interphase by regulating its SMC2-Kleisin interface

open access: yeseLife, 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.

Eco1-dependent cohesin acetylation anchors chromatin loops and cohesion to define functional meiotic chromosome domains

open access: yeseLife, 2022
Cohesin organizes the genome by forming intra-chromosomal loops and inter-sister chromatid linkages. During gamete formation by meiosis, chromosomes are reshaped to support crossover recombination and two consecutive rounds of chromosome segregation ...

NIPBL and WAPL regulate the expression of unique and shared sets of genes.

open access: yes, 2022
(A) The log2(fold change) of genes after NIPBL knockdown versus their significance. DEGs are in green (999 up, 878 down) and non-significantly changed genes (nonDEGs, adjusted p-value > 0.01) are in grey.

WAPL restricts chromatin loop extension.

open access: yes, 2022
HiC Contact map comparing significant interactions identified in WT (a) and ΔWAPL HAP1 (b) cells at 10kb fragment size. Black pixels are significant interactions identified by MaxHiC at P-value c) Distance distribution of significant interactions ...

SWITCH 1/DYAD is a WINGS APART-LIKE antagonist that maintains sister chromatid cohesion in meiosis

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
During cell division, Soronin antagonises WAPL to prevent premature loss of sister chromatid cohesion. Here the authors show that, despite a lack of sequence similarity, the Arabidopsis SWI1 protein functions as a novel Soronin-like WAPL antagonist ...

Scc2 counteracts a Wapl-independent mechanism that releases cohesin from chromosomes during G1

open access: yeseLife, 2019
Cohesin’s association with chromosomes is determined by loading dependent on the Scc2/4 complex and release due to Wapl. We show here that Scc2 also actively maintains cohesin on chromosomes during G1 in S. cerevisiae cells. It does so by blocking a Wapl-

Analysis of WAPL-1 and AIR-2 activity in condensin I mutants.

open access: yes, 2018
(A) Immunofluorescence analysis of H3S10Ph (red) in wild type and dpy-28(tm3535) males. DNA is stained with DAPI (blue). H3S10Ph is clearly detectable in diakinesis through metaphase, but levels in pachytene are undetectable both in wild type and in ...

Evidence for a Selective Sweep in the wapl Region of Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics, 2006
Abstract A scan of the X chromosome of a European Drosophila melanogaster population revealed evidence for the recent action of positive directional selection at individual loci. In this study we analyze one such region that showed no polymorphism in the genome scan (located in cytological division 2C10–2E1).

RBMX: A Regulator for Maintenance and Centromeric Protection of Sister Chromatid Cohesion

open access: yesCell Reports, 2012
Cohesion is essential for the identification of sister chromatids and for the biorientation of chromosomes until their segregation. Here, we have demonstrated that an RNA-binding motif protein encoded on the X chromosome (RBMX) plays an essential role in

The kleisin subunit controls the function of C. elegans meiotic cohesins by determining the mode of DNA binding and differential regulation by SCC-2 and WAPL-1

open access: yeseLife, 2023
The cohesin complex plays essential roles in chromosome segregation, 3D genome organisation, and DNA damage repair through its ability to modify DNA topology.
