Abstract:
:Cohesin, one of structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC) complexes, forms a ring-shaped protein complex, and mediates sister chromatid cohesion for accurate chromosome segregation and precise genome inheritance. The cohesin ring entraps one or two DNA molecules to achieve cohesion, which is further regulated by cohesin-binding proteins and modification enzymes in a cell cycle-dependent manner. Recent significant advancements in Hi-C technologies have revealed numerous cohesin-dependent higher-order chromatin structures. Simultaneously, single-molecule imaging has also unveiled the detailed dynamics of cohesin on DNA and/or chromatin. Thus, those studies are providing novel visions for the authentic chromatin structure regulated by cohesin.
