Mi2-α Background Information In the intact cell, DNA closely associates with histones and other nuclear proteins to form chromatin. The remodeling of chromatin is believed to be a critical component of transcriptional regulation and a major source of this remodeling is brought about by the acetylation of nucleosomal histones. Acetylation of lysine residues in the amino terminal tail domain of histone results in an allosteric change in the nucleosomal conformation and an increased accessiblity to transcription factors by DNA. Conversely, the deacetylation of histones is associated with transcriptional silencing. Chromatin structure alteration may be brought about by the action of ATP-dependent multiprotein complexes. One such complex is the mSin3 corepressor complex, which contains mSin3, the histone deacetylases HDAC1 and HDAC2, the associated proteins SAP 30 and SAP 18, and the autoantigens Mi2-a and Mi2-b.
