SWI/SNF Infobase—An exclusive information portal for SWI/SNF remodeling complex subunits
Chromatin remodeling complexes facilitate the access of condensed genomic DNA during transcription, replication, and repair, by altering the histone-DNA contacts in the nucleosome structures. SWI/SNF (SWItch/Sucrose Non-Fermentable) family of ATP dependent chromatin remodeling complexes have been documented for their tumour suppressor function. Recent studies have reported the high frequency of...
متن کاملLinker histone H1 modulates nucleosome remodeling by human SWI/SNF.
Chromatin, a combination of nucleosomes and linker histones, inhibits transcription by blocking polymerase movement and access of factors to DNA. ATP-dependent remodeling complexes such as SWI/SNF and RSC alter chromatin structure to increase or decrease this repression. To further our understanding of how human SWI/SNF (hSWI/SNF) "remodels" chromatin we examined the octamer location, nature, a...
متن کاملArchitecture of the SWI/SNF-nucleosome complex.
The SWI/SNF complex disrupts and mobilizes chromatin in an ATP-dependent manner. SWI/SNF interactions with nucleosomes were mapped by DNA footprinting and site-directed DNA and protein cross-linking when SWI/SNF was recruited by a transcription activator. SWI/SNF was found by DNA footprinting to contact tightly around one gyre of DNA spanning approximately 50 bp from the nucleosomal entry site ...
متن کاملSWI/SNF complex in disorder
Heterozygous germline mutations in components of switch/sucrose nonfermenting (SWI/SNF) chromatin remodeling complexes were recently identified in patients with non-syndromic intellectual disability, Coffin-Siris syndrome and Nicolaides-Baraitser syndrome. The common denominator of the phenotype of these patients is severe intellectual disability and speech delay. Somatic and germline mutations...
متن کاملHistone Acetyltransferase Complexes Stabilize SWI/SNF Binding to Promoter Nucleosomes
To investigate the function of SWI/SNF in site-specific chromatin remodeling at promoters, we have used a purified system to analyze its distribution, function, and retention following recruitment by a sequence-specific transcription activator. Activator recruitment of SWI/SNF bound the complex to promoter proximal nucleosomes and led to localized nucleosome disruption. However, retention of SW...
