Background

Proper cohesion of sister chromatids is a prerequisite for the correct segregation of chromosomes during cell division. The cohesin multiprotein complex is required for sister chromatid cohesion. This complex is composed partly of two structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC) proteins, SMC3 and either SMC1B or the protein encoded by this gene. Most of the cohesin complexes dissociate from the chromosomes before mitosis, although those complexes at the kinetochore remain. Therefore, the encoded protein is thought to be an important part of functional kinetochores. In addition, this protein interacts with BRCA1 and is phosphorylated by ATM, indicating a potential role for this protein in DNA repair. This gene, which belongs to the SMC gene family, is located in an area of the X-chromosome that escapes X inactivation. Mutations in this gene result in Cornelia de Lange syndrome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.

Interaction

Forms a heterodimer with SMC3 in cohesin complexes (PubMed:22628566). Cohesin complexes are composed of the SMC1 (SMC1A or SMC1B) and SMC3 heterodimer attached via their SMC hinge domain, RAD21 which link them, and one STAG protein (STAG1, STAG2 or STAG3), which interacts with RAD21 (PubMed:11076961). In germ cell cohesin complexes, SMC1A is mutually exclusive with SMC1B (By similarity). Interacts with BRCA1 (PubMed:11877377). Found in a complex with CDCA5, SMC3 and RAD21, PDS5A/SCC-112 and PDS5B/APRIN (PubMed:15837422). Interacts with NDC80 (PubMed:9295362, PubMed:10409732,). Interacts with BRAT1 (PubMed:22977523). Found in a complex containing POLE and SMC3. Interacts with RPGR, STAG3 and SYCP2 (By similarity). Found in a cohesin complex with SMC3, STAG1 and RAD21 (PubMed:22628566). The SMC1A-SMC3 heterodimer interacts with the NIPBL-MAU2 heterodimer (PubMed:22628566).
