The Smc5/6 Complex Is an ATP-Dependent Intermolecular DNA Linker

The structural maintenance of chromosome (SMC) protein complexes cohesin and condensin and the Smc5/6 complex (Smc5/6) are crucial for chromosome dynamics and stability. All contain essential ATPase domains, and cohesin and condensin interact with chromosomes through topological entrapment of DNA. H...
