    Mol Cell 25:357-68. 2007
    ..The presence of this motif in other metazoan proteins suggests that H2AZ-specific chaperones may be widely conserved...

    ..Z-H2B. These results suggest that the combination of H2A-containing nucleosome and free H2A.Z-H2B dimer acting as both effector and substrate for SWR1 governs the specificity and outcome of the replacement reaction...

    Laboratory of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, NCI, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland 20892, USA
    J Biol Chem 284:6200-7. 2009
    ..These findings suggest that one SWR1 enzyme might be capable of binding two H2AZ-H2B dimers, and provide further insight on the hierarchy and interdependency of molecular interactions within the SWR1 complex...
