High impact information on SWR1

  • Specific Htz1 deposition requires the SWR1 complex, which largely colocalizes with Htz1 [1].
  • Efficient deposition of H2A.Z is further promoted by a specific pattern of histone H3 and H4 tail acetylation and the bromodomain protein Bdf1, a component of the Swr1 remodeling complex that deposits H2A.Z [2].
  • Arp4 is also a subunit of the Ino80 and Swr1 chromatin remodeling complexes, which also interact with H2A P-Ser129 and are recruited to DSBs [3].
  • SUF3 encodes the nuclear ACTIN-RELATED PROTEIN6 (ARP6), the homolog of which in yeast is a component of an ATP-dependent chromatin-remodeling SWR1 complex [4].
  • Isw1 functions in parallel with the NuA4 and Swr1 complexes in stress-induced gene repression [5].
 

Biological context of SWR1

 

Other interactions of SWR1

  • This complex was designated SWR1-Com in reference to the Swr1p subunit, a Swi2/Snf2-paralog [9].
