Abstract excerpt
BAF57 is a core subunit present in all mammalian SWI/SNF ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling complexes, which regulates important biological processes including gene transcription, DNA recombination, DNA repair, and DNA replication. Among other functions, BAF57 mediates the recruitment of SWI/SNF to sequence-specific transcription factors. Thus, BAF57 plays a crucial role in regulating estrogen-dependent gene...
