ATP-Driven Exchange of Histone H2AZ Variant Catalyzed by SWR1 Chromatin Remodeling Complex

TL;DR: It is found that Swr1, a Swi2/Snf2-related adenosine triphosphatase, is the catalytic core of a multisubunit, histone-variant exchanger that efficiently replaces conventional histone H2A with hist one H2AZ in nucleosome arrays.
Journal ArticleDOI

A chromatin remodelling complex involved in transcription and DNA processing

TL;DR: Results indicate that chromatin remodelling driven by the Ino80 ATPase may be connected to transcription as well as DNA damage repair.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stepwise histone replacement by SWR1 requires dual activation with histone H2A.Z and canonical nucleosome.

TL;DR: It is shown that promoter-proximal nucleosomes are highly heterogeneous for H2A.Z in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, with substantial representation of nucleosome containing one, two, or zero H2a.Z molecules.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nonhistone Scm3 and histones CenH3-H4 assemble the core of centromere-specific nucleosomes.

TL;DR: Findings indicate that nonhistone Scm3 serves to assemble and maintain Cse4-H4 at centromeres and may replace histone H2A-H2B dimers in a centromere-specific nucleosome core.
