Summary: Enables ATP hydrolysis activity; DNA-binding transcription factor binding activity; and nucleosome array spacer activity. Involved in several processes, including DNA replication-dependent chromatin assembly; nucleus organization; and regulation of gene expression. Located in chromatin; nucleus; and polytene chromosome. Part of ISWI-type complex and transcription regulator complex. Is expressed in several structures, including embryonic/larval midgut primordium; ganglia; germline cell; head epidermis primordium; and somatic cell of testis. Used to study central nervous system disease. Orthologous to several human genes including SMARCA1 (SNF2 related chromatin remodeling ATPase 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

What's a GeneRIF?

Here, the authors show that the Chd1 remodeler from Saccharomyces cerevisiae and ISWI remodelers from human and Drosophila have distinct spatial requirements for the acidic patch. Unlike Chd1, which is equally affected by entry- and exit-side mutations, ISWI remodelers strongly depend on the entry-side acidic patch.
Title: Asymmetry between the two acidic patches dictates the direction of nucleosome sliding by the ISWI chromatin remodeler.
Data show that SWI/SNF complexes play a role in the cleavage of specific pre-mRNAs in animal cells.
Title: SWI/SNF interacts with cleavage and polyadenylation factors and facilitates pre-mRNA 3' end processing.

Title: ISWI ATP-dependent remodeling of nucleoplasmic ω-speckles in the brain of Drosophila melanogaster.
ISWI enables bi-directional transitions between two fundamentally different forms of chromatin.
Title: A Testis-Specific Chaperone and the Chromatin Remodeler ISWI Mediate Repackaging of the Paternal Genome.
Insertion of flexible linkers at strategic sites in ISWI that disrupt a power stroke does not affect nucleosome sliding.
Title: No need for a power stroke in ISWI-mediated nucleosome sliding.
In a purified system ISWI- and CHD1-type nucleosome remodelers have a clamping activity such that they not only generate regularly spaced nucleosome arrays but also generate constant spacing regardless of nucleosome density.
Title: Nucleosome spacing generated by ISWI and CHD1 remodelers is constant regardless of nucleosome density.
The effect of H4 tail at lysine 16 acetylation on ISWI remodelling depends on the precise nature of the substrate.
Title: ISWI remodelling of physiological chromatin fibres acetylated at lysine 16 of histone H4.

Title: The ATPase domain of ISWI is an autonomous nucleosome remodeling machine.
