Abstract
The faithful segregation of the genetic material into daughter cells during cell division is crucial for the production of healthy progeny. Sister chromatid cohesion and separation are fundamental to this process. Progress has been made in our molecular understanding of cohesion and mechanisms for the dissolution of cohesion have been uncovered.
