Cohesin-independent segregation of sister chromatids in budding yeast.
Molecular biology of the cell - 1 Feb 2012

Abstract excerpt
Cohesin generates cohesion between sister chromatids, which enables chromosomes to form bipolar attachments to the mitotic spindle and segregate. Cohesin also functions in chromosome condensation, transcriptional regulation, and DNA damage repair. Here we analyze the role of acetylation in modulating cohesin functions and how it affects budding yeast viability. Previous studies show that cohesion establishment...
