Protein Complexes that Modify Chromatin

This book provides timely reviews of several protein complexes that regulate gene expression and chromatin dynamics. Examples of such complexes include: nucleosome assembly complexes, ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling complexes, histone acetyltransferase complexes, histone deacetylase complexes, heterochromatin complexes, SMC complexes and transcription elongation complexes. These chapters will bring experts in the field up to date on several aspects of chromosome biology and will provide an exiting introduction to the field for new chromatin researchers.
