    Concerted regulation of ISWI by an autoinhibitory domain and the H4 N-terminal tail

    Johanna Ludwigsen, Sabrina Pfennig ... Felix Mueller-Planitz
    The N-terminal domain of the chromatin remodeler ISWI contains previously uncharacterized conserved motifs that maintain structure, prevent ATP hydrolysis unless nucleosomes are bound, and confer H4-tail sensitivity without directly competing with the H4 tail.

    Archaeal chromatin ‘slinkies’ are inherently dynamic complexes with deflected DNA wrapping pathways

    Samuel Bowerman, Jeff Wereszczynski, Karolin Luger
    Archaeal histones compact DNA into nucleosome-like particles of varying sizes that contort sporadically and reorient DNA wrapping.
    1. Chromosomes and Gene Expression

    The nucleosomal barrier to promoter escape by RNA polymerase II is overcome by the chromatin remodeler Chd1

    Peter J Skene, Aaron E Hernandez ... Steven Henikoff
    The ATP-dependent chromatin remodeler Chd1 controls nucleosome turnover to allow RNA Polymerase to transcribe in vivo.

    Basis of specificity for a conserved and promiscuous chromatin remodeling protein

    Drake A Donovan, Johnathan G Crandall ... Jeffrey N McKnight
    The identification of a novel mechanism of chromatin remodeling, including a conserved remodeler domain and regulatory epitopes, provides targets for the design of therapeutics to modulate transcriptional regulation in cells.

    ATP binding facilitates target search of SWR1 chromatin remodeler by promoting one-dimensional diffusion on DNA

    Claudia C Carcamo, Matthew F Poyton ... Taekjip Ha
    In vitro single-particle tracking reveals that ATP binding increases the one-dimensional diffusion of yeast chromatin remodeler SWR1 on DNA stretched between optical tweezers and diffusion is confined by protein roadblocks and nucleosomes.

    Inositol polyphosphate multikinase physically binds to the SWI/SNF complex and modulates BRG1 occupancy in mouse embryonic stem cells

    Jiyoon Beon, Sungwook Han ... Daeyoup Lee
    Inositol polyphosphate multikinase physically binds to the core subunits of SWI/SNF complex and plays an important role in regulating BRG1 occupancy and BRG-mediated chromatin accessibility in mouse embryonic stem cells.

    Effective dynamics of nucleosome configurations at the yeast PHO5 promoter

    Michael Roland Wolff, Andrea Schmid ... Ulrich Gerland
    The integration of multi-nucleosome configuration data with histone turnover and new chromatin accessibility data by systematically investigated 'regulated on-off-slide' models reveals promoter state transitions regulated by just one assembly process.

    Nucleosome disassembly during human non-homologous end joining followed by concerted HIRA- and CAF-1-dependent reassembly

    Xuan Li, Jessica K Tyler
    The human genome is unpackaged to allow DNA breaks to be joined back together, and then repackaged into chromosomes afterwards.

    H2A histone-fold and DNA elements in nucleosome activate SWR1-mediated H2A.Z replacement in budding yeast

    Anand Ranjan, Feng Wang ... Carl Wu
    Specific elements of the canonical nucleosome are recognized by the multi-component SWR1 chromatin remodeler for ATP-dependent replacement of H2A-H2B dimers with H2A.Z-H2B.

    Crosstalk within a functional INO80 complex dimer regulates nucleosome sliding

    Oliver Willhoft, Elizabeth A McCormack ... Dale B Wigley
    Regulation of the INO80 chromatin remodelling complex differs from those identified in other chromatin remodellers and involves a C-terminal domain of the Ino80 subunit.
