Different chromatin-scanning modes lead to targeting of compacted chromatin by pioneer factors FOXA1 and SOX2

Summary: Pioneer transcription factors interact with nucleosomes to scan silent, compact chromatin, enabling cooperative events that modulate gene activity. While at a subset of sites pioneer factors access chromatin by assisted loading with other transcription factors, the nucleosome-binding proper...
