Structural basis of H2A.Z recognition by SRCAP chromatin-remodeling subunit YL1
The crystal structure of Drosophila melanogaster YL1 in complex with an H2A.Z–H2B dimer exposes a selective recognition mechanism distinct from those of other H2A.Z chaperones and suggests a hierarchical transfer...

Structural basis for recognition of centromere histone variant CenH3 by the chaperone Scm3
Centromeres, regions on the chromosome that are essential for accurate chromosome segregation, contain unique chromatin that is marked by a histone H3 variant termed CenH3 or CENP-A. The simple centromeres of ...

NMR structure of chaperone Chz1 complexed with histones H2A.Z-H2B
The NMR structure of the H2A.Z-H2B histone chaperone, Chz1, reveals electrostatic interactions between Chz1 and the histone pair via a long, irregular chain with two cap** helices, and, based on a model, the...
