To investigate the potential mechanisms by which
the SWI/SNF complex differentially regulates different genes we have
tested whether transcription factors with diverse DNA binding domains were able to exploit nucleosome disruption by SWI/SNF. In addition to
GAL4-VP16, the SWI/SNF complex stimulated nucleosome binding by the
Zn2+ fingers of Sp1, the basic helix-loop-helix
domain of USF, and the rel domain of NF-
B. In each case SWI/SNF
action resulted in the formation of a stable factor-nucleosome complex
that persisted after detachment of SWI/SNF from the nucleosome. Thus,
stimulation of factor binding by SWI/SNF appears to be universal. The
degree of SWI/SNF stimulation of nucleosome binding by a factor appears to be inversely related to the extent that binding is inhibited by the
histone octamer. Cooperative binding of 5 GAL4-VP16 dimers to a 5-site
nucleosome enhanced GAL4 binding relative to a single-site nucleosome,
but this also reduced the degree of stimulation by SWI/SNF. The SWI/SNF
complex increased the affinity of 5 GAL4-VP16 dimers for nucleosomes
equal to that of DNA but no further. Similarly, multimerized NF-
B
sites enhanced nucleosome binding by NF-
B and reduced the
stimulatory effect of SWI/SNF. Thus, cooperative binding of factors to
nucleosomes is partially redundant with the function of the SWI/SNF
complex.
