Smc3 | Structural maintenance of chromosomes protein 3; Central component of cohesin, a complex required for chromosome cohesion during the cell cycle. The cohesin complex may form a large proteinaceous ring within which sister chromatids can be trapped. At anaphase, the complex is cleaved and dissociates from chromatin, allowing sister chromatids to segregate. Cohesion is coupled to DNA replication and is involved in DNA repair. The cohesin complex plays also an important role in spindle pole assembly during mitosis and in chromosomes movement; Belongs to the SMC family. SMC3 subfamily. (1217 aa) | ||||
Klre1 | Killer cell lectin-like receptor subfamily E member 1; Lectin-like receptor for natural killer (NK) cells. Can either inhibit or activate NK cell cytotoxic activity, depending on its binding partner. Heterodimer formation with KLRI1 mediates NK cell inhibition whereas heterodimer formation with KLRI2 mediates NK cell activation. Plays a role in allogeneic recognition by the immune system.
