The Snf2 Homolog Fun30 acts as a homodimeric ATP-dependent chromatin-remodeling enzyme [PDF]
, 2010 The Saccharomyces cerevisiae Fun30 (Function unknown now 30) protein shares homology with an extended family of Snf2-related ATPases. Here we report the purification of Fun30 principally as a homodimer with a molecular mass of about 250 kDa.
