Structural Basis of Condensin Recruitment for X Chromosome Repression

Antonio Valdés, Gurumoorthy Amudhan, Dario Bernasconi, Sinem Erkan, Markus Hassler, Iris Suter, Brigitta Wilde, Julian Bender, Bettina Warscheid, Peter Meister, Christian H. Haering

The paper identifies SDC-3 as an adaptor for condensin IDC recruitment to X chromosomes in C. elegans and shows its role in dosage compensation through loop-extrusion activity.

Binding Kinetics Oppositely Regulates type II Topoisomerase Relaxation and Decatenation Activities

Cleis Battaglia, Filippo Conforto, Yair Augusto Gutiérrez Fosado, Matt Newton, Erin Cutts, Davide Michieletto, Antonio Valdés

This study shows that topo II binding kinetics oppositely regulate decatenation and relaxation activities through a trade-off between search efficiency and processivity.

Complex rheology of condensin in entangled DNA

Filippo Conforto, Antonio Valdés, Willem Vanderlinden, Davide Michieletto

This study investigates how yeast condensin affects the rheology and viscoelasticity of entangled DNA, showing it increases viscosity and elasticity even without ATP.
