The regulated alteration of chromatin structure, termed 'chromatin remodeling', can be accomplished by covalent modification of histones or by the action of ATP-dependent remodeling complexes. A variety of mechanisms can be used to remodel chromatin; some act locally on a single nucleosome and others act more broadly. It is critical to establish a direct connection between the remodeling events observed in vivo and the mechanistic capabilities of remodeling complexes in vitro.
