Mi-2 | Chromodomain-helicase-DNA-binding protein Mi-2 homolog; Mi-2 (Mi-2) encodes a nuclear ATP-dependent nucleosome remodeler of the CHD family. It associates with active chromatin and utilizes the energy of ATP hydrolysis to move nucleosomes along DNA. It is required for repression of cell type-specific genes, full activation of heat shock genes and regulates higher order chromatin structure of polytene chromosomes. (1983 aa) | ||||
Su(var)3-7 | Suppressor of variegation 3-7 (Su(var)3-7) encodes a protein associated with heterochromatin. Increasing the amount of the product of Su(var)3-7 triggers heterochromatin expansion and epigenetic gene silencing. (1250 aa) |
