In plants as in other eukaryotes, the structural maintenance of chromosome (SMC) protein complexes cohesin, condensin and SMC5/6 are essential for sister chromatid cohesion, chromosome condensation, DNA repair and recombination. The presence of paralogous genes for various components of the different SMC complexes suggests the diversification of their biological functions during the evolution of higher plants. In...
