Popis: Allen et al. determine crystal structure of the N-terminus of SWI/SNF chromatin remodelling factor subunit BAF155. They identify an interconnected structure of MarR-like, BRCT and chromodomains, visualise the potential effect of cancer-associated missense mutations and suggest a binding site and target for small molecule inhibitors.
