SGO2 Gene Summary [Human]

Predicted to be involved in homologous chromosome segregation; meiotic sister chromatid cohesion; and mitotic sister chromatid segregation. Predicted to act upstream of or within meiotic nuclear division; positive regulation of maintenance of meiotic sister chromatid cohesion, centromeric; and protein localization. Located in chromosome, centromeric region and nuclear body. Part of mitotic cohesin complex. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in human SGO2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
