Cohesin composition and dosage independently affect early development in zebrafish.

Abstract excerpt

Cohesin, a chromatin-associated protein complex with four core subunits (Smc1a, Smc3, Rad21 and either Stag1 or 2), has a central role in cell proliferation and gene expression in metazoans. Human developmental disorders termed 'cohesinopathies' are characterized by germline variants of cohesin or its regulators that do not entirely eliminate cohesin function. However, it is not clear whether mutations in...
