Abstract
Members of the CHD chromatin remodeler family are implicated in human pathologies, however CHD6 remained poorly studied. Here, the authors show that CHD6 binds to and regulates autophagy and stress response genes across cell types. They identify a clinical mutation that affects its ability to recruit cofactors, leading to impaired autophagy induction and DNA repair.
