The mammalian DP, RB-like, E2F, and MuvB-like proteins (DREAM) complex, whose key components include p130 and E2F4, plays a fundamental role in repression of cell cycle-specific genes during growth arrest. Mammalian DREAM is well conserved with Drosophila and Caenorhabditis elegans complexes that repress pivotal developmental genes, but the mammalian complex has been thought to exist only in quiescent cells and not to be linked with development. However, new findings here identify tissue-specific promoters repressed by DREAM in proliferating precursors, revealing a new connection between control of growth arrest and terminal differentiation. Mechanistically, tissue-specific promoter occupation by DREAM is dependent on the integrity of a repressor form of the SWI/SNF chromatin-remodeling complex.
