Transcription factor MITF and remodeller BRG1 define chromatin organisation at regulatory elements in melanoma cells

TL;DR: A comprehensive MITF interactome is defined identifying novel cofactors involved in transcription, DNA replication and repair, and chromatin organisation and it is shown that MITF interacts with a PBAF chromatin remodelling complex comprising BRG1 and CHD7.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chromatin-Remodelling Complex NURF Is Essential for Differentiation of Adult Melanocyte Stem Cells

TL;DR: It is shown that MITF associates the NURF chromatin-remodelling factor in melanoma cells and shRNA-mediated silencing of the NurF subunit BPTF revealed its essential role in several melanoma cell lines and in untransformed melanocytes in vitro.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chromatin remodellers Brg1 and Bptf are required for normal gene expression and progression of oncogenic Braf-driven mouse melanoma.

TL;DR: In this melanoma model, somatic inactivation that the catalytic Brg1 (Smarca4) subunit of the SWI/SNF complex and the scaffolding Bptf sub unit of the NuRF complex delayed tumour formation and deregulated large and overlapping gene expression programs essential for normal tumour cell growth.
