Open AccessConformational dynamics of cohesin/Scc2 loading complex are regulated by Smc3 acetylation and ATP binding
The ring-shaped cohesin complex is a key player in sister chromatid cohesion, DNA repair, and gene transcription. The loading of cohesin to chromosomes requires the loader Scc2 and is regulated by ATP. This pr...

A folded conformation of MukBEF and cohesin
Structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC)–kleisin complexes organize chromosomal DNAs in all domains of life, with key roles in chromosome segregation, DNA repair and regulation of gene expression. They func...
