Therefore, it is crucial to relief the repressive environment for transcription through chromatin remodeling activities. Recently, it is widely accepted that chromatin remodeling is carried out by at least two mechanisms: ATP-dependent chromatin remodel- ing complex and covalent modifications of histone tails by histone modification complexes. This paper reviews the mecha- nisms of chromatin remodeling through ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling complex and how the two complexes work together to modify the chromatin structure and regulate the function of transcription mechanism according to recent studies.
