Protein semisynthesis—defined herein as the assembly of a protein from a combination of synthetic and recombinant fragments—is a burgeoning field of chemical biology that has …
Nucleosomes are elementary building blocks of chromatin in eukaryotes. They tightly wrap∼ 147 DNA base pairs around an octamer of histone proteins. How nucleosome …

Chromatin remodelers act to regulate multiple cellular processes, such as transcription and DNA repair, by controlling access to genomic DNA. Four families of chromatin remodelers …
Genetic models suggested that SMARCA5 was required for DNA-templated events including transcription, DNA replication, and DNA repair. We engineered a degron tag into the …

The RSC complex remodels chromatin structure and regulates gene transcription. We used cryo–electron microscopy to determine the structure of yeast RSC bound to the nucleosome …
Chromatin remodelers use a helicase-type ATPase motor to shift DNA around the histone core. Although not directly reading out the DNA sequence, some chromatin remodelers …
Molecular motors are diverse enzymes that transduce chemical energy into mechanical work and, in doing so, perform critical cellular functions such as DNA replication and …
Sequence-specific binding of proteins to DNA is essential for accessing genetic information. We derive a model that predicts an anticorrelation between the macroscopic association and …

As primary carriers of epigenetic information and gatekeepers of genomic DNA, nucleosomes are essential for proper growth and development of all eukaryotic cells …
