dre4 | FACT complex subunit spt16; Component of the FACT complex, a general chromatin factor that acts to reorganize nucleosomes. The FACT complex is involved in multiple processes that require DNA as a template such as mRNA elongation, DNA replication and DNA repair. During transcription elongation the FACT complex acts as a histone chaperone that both destabilizes and restores nucleosomal structure. It facilitates the passage of RNA polymerase II and transcription by promoting the dissociation of one histone H2A-H2B dimer from the nucleosome, then subsequently promotes the reestablishment o [...] (1122 aa) | ||||
Hmg-2 | High mobility group protein 2 (Hmg-2) encodes a member of the non-histone chromosomal high-mobility group protein family. These proteins associate with with chromatin and are ubiquitously distributed in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. The product of Hmg-2 binds to DNA in a non-sequence specific fashion to induce structural changes in DNA that include bending and unwinding that in turn, promote DNA flexibility. (376 aa) |
