Journal ArticleDOI

Functional selectivity of recombinant mammalian SWI/SNF subunits

TL;DR: A new mutant is described, hfr1 (long hypocotyl in far-red), that exhibits a reduction in seedling responsiveness specifically to continuous far- red light (FRc), thereby suggesting a locus likely to be involved in phytochrome A (phyA) signal transduction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transcriptional Regulation by p53 through Intrinsic DNA/Chromatin Binding and Site-Directed Cofactor Recruitment

TL;DR: In this article, an unmodified p53 actively binds to two sites at −1.4 and −2.3 kb within the chromatin-assembled p21 promoter and requires the C terminus and the histone acetyltransferase, p300, for transcription.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transcriptional Specificity of Human SWI/SNF BRG1 and BRM Chromatin Remodeling Complexes

TL;DR: It is shown that BRG1and BRM associate with different promoters during cellular proliferation and differentiation, and in response to specific signaling pathways by preferential interaction with certain classes of transcription factors.
Journal ArticleDOI

A SWI/SNF–Related Chromatin Remodeling Complex, E-RC1, Is Required for Tissue-Specific Transcriptional Regulation by EKLF In Vitro

TL;DR: A member of the SWI/SNF family acts directly in transcriptional activation and may regulate subsets of genes by selectively interacting with specific DNA-binding proteins.
