Sister chromatid cohesion protein PDS5 homolog B (PDS5B)

Regulator of sister chromatid cohesion in mitosis which may stabilize cohesin complex association with chromatin. May couple sister chromatid cohesion during mitosis into DNA replication.

Cohesion ensures that chromosome partitioning is accurate in both meiotic and mitotic cells and plays a significant role in DNA repair. Plays a role in androgen-induced proliferative arrest in prostate cells.
