Journal: Cell / Year: 2024 Title: Molecular basis of global promoter sensing and nucleosome capture by the SWR1 chromatin remodeler. Authors: Robert K Louder / Giho Park / Ziyang Ye / Justin S Cha / Anne M Gardner / Qin Lei / Anand Ranjan / Eva Höllmüller / Florian Stengel / B Franklin Pugh / Carl Wu / Abstract: The SWR1 chromatin remodeling complex is recruited to +1 nucleosomes downstream of transcription start sites of eukaryotic promoters, where it exchanges histone H2A for the specialized variant H2A.Z. ...The SWR1 chromatin remodeling complex is recruited to +1 nucleosomes downstream of transcription start sites of eukaryotic promoters, where it exchanges histone H2A for the specialized variant H2A.Z. Here, we use cryoelectron microscopy (cryo-EM) to resolve the structural basis of the SWR1 interaction with free DNA, revealing a distinct open conformation of the Swr1 ATPase that enables sliding from accessible DNA to nucleosomes. A complete structural model of the SWR1-nucleosome complex illustrates critical roles for Swc2 and Swc3 subunits in oriented nucleosome engagement by SWR1. Moreover, an extended DNA-binding α helix within the Swc3 subunit enables sensing of nucleosome linker length and is essential for SWR1-promoter-specific recruitment and activity. The previously unresolved N-SWR1 subcomplex forms a flexible extended structure, enabling multivalent recognition of acetylated histone tails by reader domains to further direct SWR1 toward the +1 nucleosome. Altogether, our findings provide a generalizable mechanism for promoter-specific targeting of chromatin and transcription complexes.

In the structure databanks used in Yorodumi, some data are registered as the other names, "COVID-19 virus" and "2019-nCoV". Here are the details of the virus and the list of structure data.

EMDB accession codes are about to change! (news from PDBe EMDB page)
The allocation of 4 digits for EMDB accession codes will soon come to an end. Whilst these codes will remain in use, new EMDB accession codes will include an additional digit and will expand incrementally as the available range of codes is exhausted. The current 4-digit format prefixed with “EMD-” (i.e. EMD-XXXX) will advance to a 5-digit format (i.e. EMD-XXXXX), and so on. It is currently estimated that the 4-digit codes will be depleted around Spring 2019, at which point the 5-digit format will come into force.
The EM Navigator/Yorodumi systems omit the EMD- prefix.

Yorodumi is a browser for structure data from EMDB, PDB, SASBDB, etc.
This page is also the successor to EM Navigator detail page, and also detail information page/front-end page for Omokage search.
The word "yorodu" (or yorozu) is an old Japanese word meaning "ten thousand". "mi" (miru) is to see.
