    basic FUNCTION
  • actin-dependent regulator of chromatin structure
  • promoting neurite outgrowth and may be playing a role in the differentiation and maturation of neurons during development, and regulating the engrailed homeotic genes, important regulators of brain development
  • involved in multiple nuclear functions, including transcriptional regulation, replication, and chromatin assembly
  • have gene-specific effects on transcription during terminal differentiation
  • physiological target of PARP1 and poly-ADP-ribosylation can be a new, important post-translational modification regulating the activity of ATP-dependent nucleosome remodelers
  • chromatin remodeling gene expressed in diverse tissues, that contributes to the chromatin remodeling complex that facilitates transcription
  • chromatin-remodeling complexes sample nucleosomes via transient binding reactions and become immobilized at active sites
  • evolutionarily conserved nucleosome remodelling factor that regulates gene expression and chromosome organization genome-wide
  • SMARCA1, SMARCA5 are ATP-dependent chromatin remodelling proteins that assemble, reposition and space nucleosomes, and are robustly expressed in the brain
  • SMARCA5 and SMARCA1 position nucleosomes adjacent to CTCF and other transcription factors
  • mobilize nucleosomes to control DNA accessibility and, in some cases, are required for recovery from DNA damage
  • CELLULAR PROCESS nucleotide, chromatin organization, remodeling

  • CECR2 is a binding partner of SMARCA1 and is involved in neural tube closure and inner ear development
  • ISWI proteins SMARCA1, SMARCA5 interact with BAZ (bromodomain adjacent to PHD zinc finger) domain containing proteins to generate eight distinct remodeling complexes
