説明

<jats:title>Summary</jats:title><jats:p>Chromatin remodeling <jats:styled-content style="fixed-case">ATP</jats:styled-content>ases and their associated complexes can alter the accessibility of the genome in the context of chromatin by using energy derived from the hydrolysis of <jats:styled-content style="fixed-case">ATP</jats:styled-content> to change the positioning, occupancy and composition of nucleosomes. In animals and plants, these remodelers have been implicated in diverse processes ranging from stem cell maintenance and differentiation to developmental phase transitions and stress responses. Detailed investigation of their roles in individual processes has suggested a higher level of selectivity of chromatin remodeling <jats:styled-content style="fixed-case">ATP</jats:styled-content>ase activity than previously anticipated, and diverse mechanisms have been uncovered that can contribute to the selectivity. This review summarizes recent advances in understanding the roles and activities of chromatin remodeling <jats:styled-content style="fixed-case">ATP</jats:styled-content>ases in plants.</jats:p>
