Abstract excerpt
The organization of genomic DNA into chromatin aids in the regulation of gene expression by limiting the access of transcriptional binding domains. The SWI/SNF family of chromatin-remodeling complexes, which are conserved from yeast to humans, open the chromatin to facilitate the transcriptional machinery to access their targets. The gene encoding the BAF47/hSNF5 subunit of the complex has been found mutated in...
