Alternative splicing of NURF301 generates distinct NURF chromatin remodeling complexes with altered modified histone binding specificities.
Drosophila NURF is an ISWI-containing chromatin remodeling complex that catalyzes ATP-dependent nucleosome sliding. By sliding nucleosomes, NURF can alter chromatin structure and regulate transcription. NURF301/BPTF is the only NURF-specific subunit of NURF and is instrumental in recruiting the comp...
