Functional interactions of chromosome segregation factors with the 2 micron plasmid : possible evolutionary link between the plasmid portioning locus and the budding yeast centromere

The 2 micron plasmid of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a multi-copy circular DNA genome that resides in the nucleus and exhibits nearly chromosome-like stability in host populations. Several host factors are required for equal plasmid segregation during cell division. One of them is cohesin (a multi-su...
