The nucleosome serves as a general gene repressor by the occlusion of regulatory and promoter DNA sequences. Repression is relieved by the SWI/SNF-RSC family of chromatin-remodeling complexes. Research reviewed here has revealed the essential features of the remodeling process.
核小体通过封闭调控和启动子DNA序列作为一种普遍的基因抑制因子。染色质重塑复合物的SWI/SNF-RSC家族可解除这种抑制作用。此处综述的研究揭示了重塑过程的基本特征。
