ARID/BRIGHT DNA binding domain of AT-rich interactive domain-containing protein 1A (ARID1A) and similar proteins ARID1A, also called B120, BRG1-associated factor 250a (BAF250A), Osa homolog 1(OSA1), SWI-like protein, SWI/SNF complex protein p270, or SWI/SNF-related, matrix-associated, actin-dependent regulator of chromatin subfamily F member 1 (SWI1), has been identified as a novel tumor suppressor in various tumor types. It interacts with BRG1 adenosine triphosphatase to form a SWItch/Sucrose NonFermentable (SWI/SNF) chromatin remodeling protein complex, which plays a critical role in transcriptional control and gene expression. ARID1A contains an AT-rich DNA-interacting domain (ARID, also known as BRIGHT), and Eld/Osa homology domains (EHD) 1 and 2 within the C-terminus. The ARID in ARID1A binds nonspecific DNA in general and plays an important role in targeting SWI/SNF to chromatin. The EHD1 may be capable of mediating an intramolecular association with EHD2, and/or an intermolecular association resulting in homo- or hetero-dimerization. The EHD2 binds Swi2/Brahma homologue Brahma-related gene 1 (BRG1, also known as Snf2b), a human homologue of yeast Swi2. |
