Knockdown of Dinoflagellate Condensin <i>CcSMC4</i> Subunit Leads to S-Phase Impediment and Decompaction of Liquid Crystalline Chromosomes

Knockdown of Dinoflagellate Condensin <i>CcSMC4</i> Subunit Leads to S-Phase Impediment and Decompaction of Liquid Crystalline Chromosomes

Dinoflagellates have some of the largest genomes, and their liquid-crystalline chromosomes (LCCs) have high degrees of non-nucleosomal superhelicity with cation-mediated DNA condensation. It is currently unknown if condensins, pentameric protein complexes containing structural maintenance of chromos...
