Two possible modes of pioneering associated with combinations of H2A.Z and p300/CBP at nucleosome-occupied enhancers
Open accessAbstract
Pioneer transcription factors are defined by their ability to bind nucleosome-occupied regions. Here, we discuss the properties of nucleosomes bound by pioneers at enhancer regions. We describe how select pioneers bind nucleosome-occupied or -depleted enhancer sites. Importantly, by revisiting and expanding existing data sets, we show differential H2A.Z and p300/CBP association at bound enhancers, highlighting two possible pioneering modes.

H2A.Z occupancy seems to correlate with pioneer TF binding to nucleosome-occupied regions and has been suggested to act as a scaffold for binding of pioneer TFs and chromatin remodelers.
“The role of H2A.Z in closed chromatin is less clear, but H2A.Z occupancy seems to correlate with pioneer TF binding to nucleosome-occupied regions and has been suggested to act as a scaffold for binding of pioneer TFs and chromatin remodelers (72,73).”

The Results and discussion (page unavailable) report H2A.Z enrichment at nucleosome-occupied sites bound by the pioneer factors Ets1 and Oct4, supporting the proposed correlation. The Introduction and Results and discussion mention pioneer factors recruiting chromatin remodelers, but do not suggest that H2A.Z acts as a scaffold for binding either the factors or remodelers.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
