Subcellular location [CC]Nucleus {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9CW03}. Chromosome {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9CW03}. Chromosome, centromere {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9CW03}. Note=Associates with chromatin. Before prophase it is scattered along chromosome arms. During prophase, most of cohesin complexes dissociate from chromatin probably because of phosphorylation by PLK, except at centromeres, where cohesin complexes remain. At anaphase, the RAD21 subunit of the cohesin complex is cleaved, leading to the dissociation of the complex from chromosomes, allowing chromosome separation. The phosphorylated form at Ser-1083 is preferentially associated with unsynapsed chromosomal regions (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9CW03}.
