Abstract

Cohesin role in T-cell differentiation Cohesin is well known as the protein complex that holds sister chromatids together after replication so that they are not prematurely separated before mitosis. More recent data suggested that cohesin also has a cell-division-independent function, the loss of which can lead to disease. Matthias Merkenschlager and colleagues report that in mouse thymocytes, cohesin is required for long-range interactions that underlie several events leading to T-cell receptor rearrangement and thymocyte differentiation.
