Condensins organize chromosomes to allow proper segregation during mitosis or meiosis. Haering and colleagues show that the two HEAT-repeat subunits of the condensin complex, Ycg1 and Ycs4, bind DNA; this interaction stimulates ATPase activity of the SMC subunits and is required for condensin association with chromosomes.
