The presence of BRG1 and Brm in SW13 correlates completely with the cellular ability to express such genes as vimentin, collagenase, c-met, and CD44 that were under the control of a transcription factor, AP-1, which was shown previously to require a functional SWI/SNF complex for its transactivating activity.
