Learn MoreThe SMC Loader Scc2 Promotes ncRNA Biogenesis and Translational Fidelity. The Scc2-Scc4 complex is essential for loading the cohesin complex onto DNA. Cohesin has important roles in chromosome segregation, DSB repair, and chromosome condensation. Here we report that Scc2 is important for gene expression in budding yeast.
Learn MoreFurthermore, the Mis4 Scc2 loader was found to form a tertiary complex with cohesin on DNA, where its DNA binding activity facilitates the initial DNA binding of cohesin. In fission yeast cells, residues that support Mis4 Scc2 -DNA interaction are important for chromosomal cohesin loading and for cell viability.
Learn MoreJul 15, 2015 · Mutation of SCC2 was associated with defects in the production of ribosomal RNA, ribosome assembly, and splicing. While the scc2 mutant does not have a general defect in protein synthesis, it shows increased frameshifting and reduced cap-independent translation. These findings suggest Scc2 normally promotes a gene expression program that
