Nucleosome mobilization and positioning by ISWI-containing chromatin-remodeling factors.
ATP-dependent chromatin-remodeling machines of the SWI/SNF family are involved in many cellular processes in eukaryotic nuclei, such as transcription, replication, repair and recombination. Remodeling factors driven by the ATPase ISWI make up a subgroup of this family that exhibits defined mechanistic and functional characteristics. ISWI-induced nucleosome mobility endows nucleosomal arrays wit...
متن کاملGenetic Identification of a Network of Factors that Functionally Interact with the Nucleosome Remodeling ATPase ISWI
Nucleosome remodeling and covalent modifications of histones play fundamental roles in chromatin structure and function. However, much remains to be learned about how the action of ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling factors and histone-modifying enzymes is coordinated to modulate chromatin organization and transcription. The evolutionarily conserved ATP-dependent chromatin-remodeling factor ISW...
متن کاملThe role of ISWI chromatin remodeling complexes in brain development and neurodevelopmental disorders
The mammalian ISWI (Imitation Switch) genes SMARCA1 and SMARCA5 encode the ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling proteins SNF2L and SNF2H. The ISWI proteins interact with BAZ (bromodomain adjacent to PHD zinc finger) domain containing proteins to generate eight distinct remodeling complexes. ISWI complex-mediated nucleosome positioning within genes and gene regulatory elements is proving important...
متن کاملIn vivo chromatin remodeling by yeast ISWI homologs Isw1p and Isw2p.
Isw1p and Isw2p are budding yeast homologs of the Drosophila ISWI chromatin-remodeling ATPase. Using indirect-end-label and chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis, we show both independent and cooperative Isw1p- and Isw2p-mediated positioning of short nucleosome arrays in gene-regulatory elements at a variety of transcription units in vivo. We present evidence that both yeast ISWI complexes reg...
متن کاملISWI chromatin remodeling complexes in the DNA damage response
Regulation of chromatin structure is an essential component of the DNA damage response (DDR), which effectively preserves the integrity of DNA by a network of multiple DNA repair and associated signaling pathways. Within the DDR, chromatin is modified and remodeled to facilitate efficient DNA access, to control the activity of repair proteins and to mediate signaling. The mammalian ISWI family ...
