Term Name: SWI/SNF superfamily-type complex
Synonyms: BAF-type complex, SWI-SNF global transcription activator complex, SWI-SNF-type complex, SWI/SNF-type complex, SWI2/SNF2 superfamily ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling complex
Definition: A protein complex that contains an ortholog of the Saccharomyces ATPase Swi2/Snf2 as one of the catalytic subunit components (ATPase) and mediates assembly of nucleosomes, changes to the spacing or structure of nucleosomes, or some combination of those activities in a manner that requires ATP.
