A multisubunit complex containing the SWI1/ADR6,SWI2/SNF2, SWI3, SNF5, and SNF6 gene products isolated fromyeast.

Abstract

A complex containing the products of the SWI1/ADR6, SWI2/SNF2, SWI3, SNF5, and SNF6 genes and four additional polypeptides has been purified from extracts of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Physical association of these proteins was demonstrated by copurification and coimmunoprecipitation. A potent DNA-dependent ATPase copurified with the complex, and this activity was evidently associated with SWI2/SNF2.
