ATP-dependent reorientation on a nucleosome primes INO80 for DNA translocation

ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling enzymes play central roles in genome regulation by mobilizing nucleosomes. All remodelers except for one, position their core ATPase at an internal nucleosome location, superhelical location (SHL) 2, and translocate DNA from this site to alter nucleosome conformation. The exception, the remodeler INO80, positions its core ATPase, Ino80, near the DNA exit/entry…
