SMC2, a Saccharomyces cerevisiae gene essential for chromosome segregation and condensation, defines a subgroup within the SMC family.

Genes & development - 1 Mar 1995

Strunnikov A V, Hogan E, Koshland D

Abstract excerpt

We characterized the SMC2 (structural maintenance of chromosomes) gene that encodes a new Saccharomyces cerevisiae member of the growing family of SMC proteins. This family of evolutionary conserved proteins was introduced with identification of SMC1, a gene essential for chromosome segregation in budding yeast. The analysis of the putative structure of the Smc2 protein (Smc2p) suggests that it defines a distinct...
