Chromatin remodeling enzyme Brg1 is required for mouse lens fiber cell terminal differentiation and its denucleation [PDF]
Background: Brahma-related gene 1 (Brg1, also known as Smarca4 and Snf2 beta) encodes an adenosine-5'-triphosphate (ATP)-dependent catalytical subunit of the (switch/sucrose nonfermentable) (SWI/SNF) chromatin remodeling complexes.

Myogenesis is the biological process by which skeletal muscle tissue forms. Regulation of myogenesis involves a variety of conventional, epigenetic, and epigenomic mechanisms that control chromatin remodeling, DNA methylation, histone modification, and ...

Dynamic chromatin: concerted nucleosome remodelling and acetylation [PDF]
The flexibility of chromatin that enables translation of environmental cues into changes in genome utilisation, relies on a battery of enzymes able to modulate chromatin structure in a highly targeted and regulated manner.

ATP-dependent chromatin assembly is functionally distinct from chromatin remodeling
Chromatin assembly involves the combined action of ATP-dependent motor proteins and histone chaperones. Because motor proteins in chromatin assembly also function as chromatin remodeling factors, we investigated the relationship between ATP-driven ...

Interaction of HP1 and Brg1/Brm with the Globular Domain of Histone H3 Is Required for HP1-Mediated Repression [PDF]
The heterochromatin-enriched HP1 proteins play a critical role in regulation of transcription. These proteins contain two related domains known as the chromo- and the chromoshadow-domain.

Remodeling chromatin for senescence [PDF]
SummaryCellular senescence is an irreversible proliferation arrest that contributes to tumor suppression and, perhaps, tissue aging. Senescence is frequently accompanied by an increase in nuclear heterochromatin, which is thought to promote proliferation arrest. In this issue, Medrano and co‐workers describe new insights into the protein complexes that

Theory of active chromatin remodeling [PDF]
Nucleosome positioning controls the accessible regions of chromatin and plays essential roles in DNA-templated processes. ATP driven remodeling enzymes are known to be crucial for its establishment in vivo , but their non-equilibrium nature has hindered the development of a unified theoretical ...

Remodeling Chromatin in an ARID Environment [PDF]
The control of gene expression is of fundamental importance for cellular life. In Eukaryotes, linear DNA is wrapped around nucleosomes that constitute a physical barrier to active transcription. Chromatin remodeling complexes modulate the composition, stability, and positioning of nucleosomes,

Proteomic interrogation of human chromatin. [PDF]
Chromatin proteins provide a scaffold for DNA packaging and a basis for epigenetic regulation and genomic maintenance. Despite understanding its functional roles, mapping the chromatin proteome (i.e. the "Chromatome") is still a continuing process. Here,

Genetic information encoded by DNA is packaged in the nucleus using the chromatin structure. The accessibility of transcriptional elements in DNA is controlled by the dynamic structural changes of chromatin for the appropriate regulation of gene ...
