Cohesin's ATPase activity is stimulated by the C-terminal Winged-Helix domain of its kleisin subunit.

BACKGROUND: Cohesin, a multisubunit protein complex conserved from yeast to humans, holds sister chromatids together from the onset of replication to their separation during anaphase. Cohesin consists of four core subunits, namely Smc1, Smc3, Scc1, and Scc3. Smc1 and Smc3 proteins are characterized...
