  1. BRG1 Cancer as an Epigenetic Disease By: Emily Zuehlke Source: UniProt

  2. BRG1 and the SWI/SNF Remodeling Complex • General role • Cancers it’s involved in • Where it is Early embryonic development Zygotic Genome Activation Differentiation of neuronal cells Proliferation of lymphocytes Differentiation of cardiac cells Proliferation of blood vessel cells Source: Cancer 2006

  3. The SWI/SNF complex remodels chromatin Source: Cancer 2006

  4. The SWI/SNF complex causes the nucleosome to slide or to be ejected from the chromatin This exposes the DNA and allows for transcription factors to bind Source: Cancer 2011

  5. BRG1 and the SWI/SNF complex regulate epigenetics in numerous pathways Source: Cancer 2011

  6. Conditional knock-outs reveal BRG1’s conserved presence and varied roles in test species Source: Marenda, Dev Bio 2004 Source: Kopp, Nature 2003.

  7. Combinatorial assembly results in BRG1’s role in various key cellular functions Source: Ho, Nature 2010

  8. Missense mutations can abolish BRG1’s ATPase activity Source: Wong, Cancer Research 2000 Source: Medina, Epigenetics 2008

  9. BRG1 is implicated as a tumor suppressor and an oncogene in numerous cancers Sources: Sanchez-Cespedes, EMBO 2012; Lin, BJD 2010; Wikipedia

  10. BRG1 mutations are involved in one-third of non-small cell lung cancers Source: Reisman, Cancer Research 2003

  11. BRG1 has potential as a drug target in some cancer lines Source: Lin, BJD 2010

  12. Smoking may increase susceptibility to mutations in BRG1 Sources: Medina, 2008; Matsuda, 1998
