Abstract excerpt
Mammalian switch/sucrose nonfermenting (mSWI/SNF) chromatin remodeling complexes modulate DNA accessibility and gene expression; however, their genomic targeting mechanisms remain incompletely understood. Here, we identify SWIFT [SWI/SNF immunoglobulin fold (Ig-fold) for transcription factor interactions], a conserved transcription factor (TF) binding domain on the SMARCD subunits. SWIFT is necessary and...
