Cohesin interaction with centromeric minichromosomes shows a multi-complex rod-shaped structure.

Cohesin is the protein complex responsible for maintaining sister chromatid cohesion. Cohesin interacts with centromeres and specific loci along chromosome arms known as Chromosome Attachment Regions (CARs). The cohesin holocomplex contains four subunits.
