Eco1 mediated acetylation regulates PCNA sliding on DNA in the presence of DNA damage, favoring homologous recombination linked to sister-chromatid cohesion.
Title: Acetylation of PCNA Sliding Surface by Eco1 Promotes Genome Stability through Homologous Recombination.

These results also suggest that Eco1 promotes cohesion by modulating the ATPase cycle of DNA-bound cohesin in a state that is permissive for DNA tethering and refractory to Wpl1 inhibition.
Title: The ATPases of cohesin interface with regulators to modulate cohesin-mediated DNA tethering.

Eco1p-mediated acetylation promotes establishment by abrogating the ability of Wpl1p to destabilize cohesin binding to chromosomes.
Title: A novel mechanism for the establishment of sister chromatid cohesion by the ECO1 acetyltransferase.

Data indicate that cell cycle protein Pds5 promotes acetylation of cohesin subunit Smc3 by acetyltransferase Eco1 during S phase.
Title: Pds5 promotes and protects cohesin acetylation.

the absence of Ctf4 and Chl1, but not of the other factors, causes a synthetic growth defect in cells lacking Eco1.
