  2. Chromosome scaffold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromosome_scaffold

    The enzyme DNA topoisomerase IIα prominently appears along the chromosome axis as part of the scaffold. [3] In mitosis, it is concentrated at the centromeres and the axis along the chromosome arms. It is thought that the protein has a role in untangling the DNA as the loops become more concentrated along the axis during the condensation of the ...

  3. Scaffold protein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scaffold_protein

    Chromosome scaffold has important role to hold the chromatin into compact chromosome. Chromosome scaffold is made of proteins including condensin , topoisomerase IIα and kinesin family member 4 (KIF4) [ 27 ] Chromosome scaffold constituent proteins are also called scaffold protein.

  4. Scaffold/matrix attachment region - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scaffold/Matrix_Attachment...

    Transcription is terminated (III) followed by dissociation of the transcription complex (IV) The term S/MAR (scaffold/matrix attachment region), otherwise called SAR (scaffold-attachment region), or MAR (matrix-associated region), are sequences in the DNA of eukaryotic chromosomes where the nuclear matrix attaches.

  5. DNA condensation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_condensation

    Many aspects of transcription are controlled by chemical modification on the histone proteins, known as the histone code. Chromosome scaffold has important role to hold the chromatin into compact chromosome. Chromosome scaffold is made of proteins including condensin, topoisomerase IIα and kinesin family member 4 (KIF4) [7]

  6. Non-histone protein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-histone_protein

    They play vital roles in regulating processes like nucleosome remodeling, DNA replication, RNA synthesis and processing, nuclear transport, steroid hormone action and interphase/mitosis transition. [1] Scaffold proteins, DNA polymerase, Heterochromatin Protein 1 and Polycomb are common non-histone proteins. This classification group also ...

  8. SAFB - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAFB

    This gene encodes a DNA-binding protein that has specificity for scaffold or matrix attachment region DNA elements (S/MAR DNA). This protein is thought to be involved in attaching the base of chromatin loops to the nuclear matrix but there are conflicting views as to whether this protein is a component of chromatin, the nuclear matrix, or both.

  9. CNOT1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNOT1

    CCR4-NOT transcription complex subunit 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CNOT1 gene. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] It is a part of the CCR4-Not complex, which deadenylates mRNAs . [ 7 ]
