SMARCB1, also named as BAF47, INI1 and SNF5L1, belongs to the SNF5 family. It is a core component of the BAF (hSWI/SNF) complex. The BAF complex is able to create a stable, altered form of chromatin that constrains fewer negative supercoils than normal. SMARCB1 stimulates in vitro the remodeling activity of SMARCA4/BRG1/BAF190A. It is involved in activation of CSF1 promoter. SMARCB1 belongs to the neural progenitors-specific chromatin remodeling complex (npBAF complex) and the neuron-specific chromatin remodeling complex (nBAF complex). During neural development a switch from a stem/progenitor to a post-mitotic chromatin remodeling mechanism occurs as neurons exit the cell cycle and become committed to their adult state. SMARCB1 plays a key role in cell-cycle control and causes cell cycle arrest in G0/G1. It is also involved in vitamin D-coupled transcription regulation via its association with the WINAC complex, a chromatin-remodeling complex recruited by vitamin D receptor (VDR), which is required for the ligand-bound VDR-mediated transrepression of the CYP27B1 gene. Defects in SMARCB1 are a cause of rhabdoid tumor (RDT) which also known as malignant rhabdoid tumor (MRT). Defects in SMARCB1 are a cause of schwannomatosis. The antibody is specific to SMARCB1.
