Term Information

Accession
GO:0051304
Name
chromosome separation
Ontology
biological_process
Synonyms
chromatid release, rDNA separation
Alternate IDs
GO:0034500
Definition
The cell cycle process in which paired chromosomes are detached from each other. Chromosome separation begins with the release of cohesin complexes from chromosomes; in budding yeast, this includes the cleavage of cohesin complexes along the chromosome arms, followed by the separation of the centromeric regions. Chromosome separation also includes formation of chromatid axes mediated by condensins, and ends with the disentangling of inter-sister catenation catalyzed by topoisomerase II (topo II).
