Modifications can be made by at least two evolutionarily conserved strategies, through the disruption of histone-DNA contacts by ATP-dependent chromatin remodelers, or by histone tail modifications including methylation and acetylation. One of the four classes of ATP-dependent histone remodelers is the SWI\/SNF complex, the central catalytic subunit of which is Brg1 or the highly related protein hBRM (1). This SWI\/SNF complex contains varying subunits but its association with either Brg1 or hBRM remains constant (1). SWI\/SNF complexes have been shown to regulate gene activation, cell growth, the cell cycle, and differentiation (1). Brg1\/hBRM have been shown to regulate transcription through enhancing transcriptional activation of glucocorticoid receptors (2). Although usually associated with transcriptional activation, Brg1\/hBRM have also been found in complexes associated with transcriptional repression, including HDACs, Rb, and Tif1β (3-5). Brg1\/hBRM plays a vital role in the regulation of gene transcription during early mammalian embryogenesis. In addition, Brg1\/hBRM also plays a role as a tumor suppressor and Brg1 is mutated in several tumor cell lines (6-8). ACTL6\/BAF53 proteins are highly homologous, actin-related proteins found in the SWI\/SNF complex (9). In addition to the canonical SWI\/SNF complex, ACT6LA\/BAF53A is also member of the embryonic SWI\/SNF complex, known as esBAF, which plays a role in pluripotency and development (10-12). ACTL6B\/BAF53B is a member of the neural-specific SWI\/SNF complex that facilitates binding to target genes and is involved in memory and synaptic plasticity (13-15). ACTL6\/BAF53 has been shown to interact with c-Myc, where it functions as a cofactor and is important in the transformation process (16). Further studies have shown ACTL6\/BAF53 is associated with EMT and transformation in various cancers (17,18).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\n53 kDa BRG1-associated factor A; ACL6A; actin like 6A; actin-like 6A; Actin-like protein 6A; actin-related protein 4; Actin-related protein Baf53a; ACTL6; ACTL6A; Arp4; ARPN-BETA; ArpNbeta; BAF complex 53 kDa subunit; BAF53; BAF53A; BRG1-associated factor 53A; hArpN beta; INO80 complex subunit K; INO80K; MGC5382\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M R Mk\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 45\nSOURCE: Rabbit","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799897755817,"sku":"76682S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-76682s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
