Stag1 - STAG1 cohesin complex component

Predicted to enable chromatin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in mitotic spindle assembly and sister chromatid cohesion. Predicted to be located in mitotic spindle pole; nuclear body; and nuclear matrix. Predicted to be part of cohesin complex. Predicted to be active in chromatin and nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal dominant mental retardation 47. Orthologous to human STAG1 (stromal antigen 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
