Gerald Crabtree, Cigall Kadoch and colleagues report that BAF complexes oppose PRC by rapid, ATP-dependent eviction in the absence of Pol II occupancy, transcription or replication, leading to the formation of accessible chromatin. They also find that tumor-suppressor and oncogenic mutations in BAF subunits result in differential effects on PRC eviction.
