The Snf2 Homolog Fun30 acts as a homodimeric ATP-dependent chromatin-remodeling enzyme [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

The Roles of Hippo Signaling Transducers Yap and Taz in Chromatin Remodeling

open access: yesCells, 2019
Hippo signaling controls cellular processes that ultimately impact organogenesis and homeostasis. Consequently, disease states including cancer can emerge when signaling is deregulated.

SWI/SNF-like chromatin remodeling factor Fun30 supports point centromere function in S. cerevisiae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Budding yeast centromeres are sequence-defined point centromeres and are, unlike in many other organisms, not embedded in heterochromatin. Here we show that Fun30, a poorly understood SWI/SNF-like chromatin remodeling factor conserved in humans ...

Global Regulatory DNA Potentiation by SMARCA4 Propagates to Selective Gene Expression Programs via Domain-Level Remodeling

open access: yesCell Reports, 2020
Summary: The human genome encodes millions of regulatory elements, of which only a small fraction are active within a given cell type. Little is known about the global impact of chromatin remodelers on regulatory DNA landscapes and how this translates to

Rad54: the Swiss Army knife of homologous recombination? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Homologous recombination (HR) is a ubiquitous cellular pathway that mediates transfer of genetic information between homologous or near homologous (homeologous) DNA sequences. During meiosis it ensures proper chromosome segregation in the first division.

Mammalian SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complexes and cancer: Mechanistic insights gained from human genomics

open access: yesScience Advances, 2015
New human genetic findings paired with biochemical studies are challenging current thinking on the function of chromatin remodeling complexes. Over the past 4 years, nearly 100 exome sequencing studies have revealed the high frequency of mutations in the

The DNA-binding domain of the Chd1 chromatin-remodelling enzyme contains SANT and SLIDE domains [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The ATP-dependent chromatin-remodelling enzyme Chd1 is a 168-kDa protein consisting of a double chromodomain, Snf2-related ATPase domain, and a C-terminal DNA-binding domain.

Chromatin Remodeling and Epigenetic Regulation in Plant DNA Damage Repair

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2019
DNA damage response (DDR) in eukaryotic cells is initiated in the chromatin context. DNA damage and repair depend on or have influence on the chromatin dynamics associated with genome stability. Epigenetic modifiers, such as chromatin remodelers, histone

The SIRT7-nucleolus connection in cancer: ARF enters the fray

open access: yesMolecular & Cellular Oncology
The nucleolar enzyme sirtuin 7 (SIRT7) promotes cancer progression in certain malignancies, likely in part by controlling ribosome biosynthesis. Recently, we discovered that SIRT7 destabilizes the cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor 2A (CDKN2A, known as ...

CHD3 and CHD4 recruitment and chromatin remodeling activity at DNA breaks is promoted by early poly(ADP-ribose)-dependent chromatin relaxation

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2018
One of the first events to occur upon DNA damage is the local opening of the compact chromatin architecture, facilitating access of repair proteins to DNA lesions.
