The Saccharomyces cerevisiae Yta7 is a chromatin remodeler harboring a histone-interacting bromodomain (BRD) and two AAA+ modules. It is not well understood how Yta7 recognizes the histone H3 tail to promote nucleosome disassembly for DNA replication or RNA transcription. By cryo-EM analysis, here we show that Yta7 assembles a three-tiered hexamer with a top BRD tier, a middle AAA1 tier, and a bottom AAA2 tier. Unexpectedly, the Yta7 BRD stabilizes a four-stranded β-helix, termed BRD-interacting ...[more]
