Structural maintenance of chromosomes protein 5 is a protein encoded by the SMC5 gene in human.
The structural maintenance of chromosomes' complex underlying mechanisms involved in the dynamics of chromatin dynamics is unknown, and discoveries are shedding light on the various functions. The SMC complex mediates long-distance interactions that enable higher-order chromatin folding in interphase. The SMC complex has an ATPase activity, a conserved kleisin, and regulatory subunits. SMC protein complexes are involved in DNA repair, transcriptional pathways, regulation of chromosome segregation, and immunity in Arabidopsis. In eukaryotes the structural maintenance chromosomes consists of cohesin (SMC1 AND SMC3), condensin (SMC2 and SMC4), and SMC5/6 complexes.
