“…Chromatin imaged by several distinct methods in living cells displays heterogeneous mobility, which is dependent on its compaction state, subnuclear localization, and ATP-dependent processes (Gasser, 2002; Gu et al, 2018; Marshall et al, 1997; Soutoglou & Misteli, 2007). Remodelers may undergo 1D translocation on DNA (Sirinakis et al, 2011), and alter either local chromatin movement (Basu et al, 2020; Neumann et al, 2012) or higher-order chromatin structure (Lusser, Urwin, & Kadonaga, 2005; Maier, Chioda, Rhodes, & Becker, 2008) in an ATP-dependent fashion. We assessed the diffusive behavior of the chromatin-bound fraction of remodelers relative to the average dynamics of incorporated Halo-H2B histone.…”
