UniprotKB/SwissProt ID: SMC4_HUMAN (Q9NTJ3)
Gene Name: SMC4
Synonyms: CAPC, SMC4L1
Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).
Function: Central component of the condensin complex, a complex required for conversion of interphase chromatin into mitotic-like condense chromosomes. The condensin complex probably introduces positive supercoils into relaxed DNA in the presence of type I topoisomerases and converts nicked DNA into positive knotted forms in the presence of type II topoisomerases.
Other Modifications: View all modification sites in dbPTM
Protein Subcellular Localization: Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Chromosome. Note=In interphase cells, the majority of the condensin complex is found in the cytoplasm, while a minority of the complex is associated with chromatin. A subpopulation of the complex however remains associated with chromo
