Widespread impact of nucleosome remodelers on transcription at cis-regulatory elements.

ABSTRACT: Nucleosome remodeling complexes and other regulatory factors work in concert to build a chromatin environment that directs the expression of a distinct set of genes in each cell using cis-regulatory elements (CREs), such as promoters and enhancers, that drive transcription of both mRNAs and CRE-associated non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs). Two classes of CRE-associated ncRNAs include upstream antisense RNAs (uaRNAs), which are transcribed divergently from a shared mRNA promoter, and enhancer RNAs (eRNAs), which are transcribed bidirectionally from active enhancers. The complicated network of CRE regulation by nucleosome remodelers remains only partially explored, with a focus on a select, limited number of remodelers. We endeavored to elucidate a remodeler-based regulatory network governing CRE-ass
