Biochem/physiol Actions

The wild type human brahma-related gene 1 (Brg1) encodes a protein of 1,647 amino acids that contains a conserved domain of the SWI2/SNF2 family necessary for normal mitotic growth and transcription regulation. BRG1 is an essential component of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complexes and implicated in multiple functions through its interaction with different proteins, including the tumor suppressor protein pRb, serine-threonine kinase LKB1, and other transcription factors. Although Brg1 is involved in chromatin remodeling as a complex with other SWI/SNF proteins, purified BRG1 itself is capable of remodeling mono-nucleosomes and nucleosomal arrays in vitro. Mutations of Brg1 have been found in multiple tumor cell lines.

Sequence-specific DNA binding activators of gene transcription may be assisted by SWI2 (SNF2), which contains a DNA-dependent ATPase domain. We have isolated a human complementary DNA encoding a 205K nuclear protein, BRG1, that contains extensive homology to SWI2 and Drosophila

During mitosis, chromatin is condensed into mitotic chromosomes and transcription is inhibited, processes that might be opposed by the chromatin remodeling activity of the SWI/SNF complexes. Brg1 and hBrm, which are components of human SWI/SNF (hSWI/SNF) complexes, were recently shown

The assembly of transcriptional regulatory DNA sequences into chromatin plays a fundamental role in modulating gene expression. The promoter of the mouse mammary-tumour virus (MMTV) is packaged into a regular array of nucleosomes when it becomes stably integrated into mammalian
