| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The formation of mitotic chromosomes requires both compaction of chromatin and the resolution of replicated sister chromatids. Compaction occurs during prophase, depending on the activity of condensin II. Exactly when sister chromatid resolution occurs has been largely unknown, as has its molecular requirements. In this study, we visualized sister resolution by sequential replication labelling with two distinct nucleotide derivatives. Quantitative analyses allowed us to find that sister resolution starts already at the beginning of prophase, proceeds concomitantly with chromatin compaction and is largely completed by the end of prophase. Sister resolution was abolished by inhibition of topoisomerase IIα and by inactivation of condensin II, whereas blocking cohesin dissociation from chromosomes had little effect. Sister resolution is thus an intrinsic part of mitotic chromosome formation in prophase, and shares the molecular requirement for condensin II with prophase compaction.
