Stability of Chromatin Remodeling Complex Subunits Is Determined by Their Phosphorylation Status

Dokl Biochem Biophys. 2018 Mar;479(1):66-68. doi: 10.1134/S1607672918020035. Epub 2018 May 19.

Abstract

It was found that, in the differentiated cells of mouse brain, the level of core (Brg1 and BAF155) and specific (BRD7, BAF180, and PHF10) subunits of the chromatin-remodeling complex PBAF is reduced compared to the undifferentiated proliferating cells. Phosphorylation of PBAF complex subunits is required for maintaining their stability in differentiated brain cells.
