ATP-dependent chromatin remodelers alter chromatin structure by a variety of mechanisms. These mechanisms include changing the translational position of a nucleosome (nucleosome sliding), evicting an entire histone octamer, removing an H2A-H2B dimer, exchanging an H2A-H2B dimer (which can include exchanges between canonical histones or histone variants), and altering the conformation of a nucleosome.
