  1. ncbi The FACT chromatin modulator: genetic and structure/function relationships
    Richard A Singer
    Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Dalhousie University, Halifax, Canada
    Biochem Cell Biol 82:419-27. 2004
    ..Genetic studies suggest that FACT mediates nucleosome reorganization along several pathways, and reinforce the notion that protein unfolding and (or) refolding is involved in FACT activity for transcription...
  2. ncbi FACT, the Bur kinase pathway, and the histone co-repressor HirC have overlapping nucleosome-related roles in yeast transcription elongation
    Jennifer R Stevens
    Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Dalhousie University, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada
    PLoS ONE 6:e25644. 2011

    Jeremy J R Benjamin
    Department of Microbiology and Immunology, DalhousieUniversity, Halifax, Nova Scotia B3H 1X5, Canada
    J Biol Chem 286:5187-96. 2011
    ..We show by direct assessment of Age1 ArfGAP activity that Age1 is regulated by lipid composition and can provide ArfGAP function for post-Golgi transport...
  4. ncbi New mutant versions of yeast FACT subunit Spt16 affect cell integrity
    Allyson F O'Donnell
    Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Dalhousie University, Sir Charles Tupper Medical Building, 5850 College Street, Halifax, NS, B3H 1X5, Canada
    Mol Genet Genomics 282:487-502. 2009
    ..Thus, the FACT subunit Spt16 and Pkc1 signaling have an overlapping essential function, with an unexpected role for FACT in the maintenance of cell integrity...
  5. ncbi Dysregulated Arl1, a regulator of post-Golgi vesicle tethering, can inhibit endosomal transport and cell proliferation in yeast
    Jeremy J R Benjamin
    Department of Microbiology and Immunology, Dalhousie University, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada B3H 1X5
    Mol Biol Cell 22:2337-47. 2011
    ..Protein sequestration at the trans-Golgi membrane by dysregulated, active Arl1 may therefore be the mechanism of inhibition...

    Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 102:12777-82. 2005
    ..Thus, ArfGAPs are subject to both temporal and spatial regulation that is facilitated by Sfh2-mediated modulation of the lipid environment...

    Stephen M Lewis
    Departments of Microbiology and Immunology, Dalhousie University, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada B3H 1X5
