| description | This entry include a group of proteins involved in chromatin remodelling, including Vps72 (vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 72) from budding yeasts. Vps72 is a Htz1-binding component of the SWR1 complex, which is required for the incorporation of the histone variant H2AZ into chromatin []. It is also required for vacuolar protein sorting in budding yeasts [].The Vps72 homologue from animals, YL-1, is a deposition-and-exchangehistone chaperone specific for H2AZ1, specifically chaperones H2AZ1 and deposits it into nucleosomes. It is component of the SRCAP and Tip60 complexes, and mediates the ATP-dependent exchange of histone H2AZ1/H2B dimers for nucleosomal H2A/H2B, leading to transcriptional regulation of selected genes by chromatin remodeling [, ].This is the N-terminal region from Vps72/YL1, which covers the aspartate- and glutamate-rich N-terminal domain and the central DNA-binding domain [, ]. |
