ATP-dependent SWI/SNF chromatin remodelling complexes are conserved multi-subunit assemblies that control genome activity. Functions of SWI/SNF complexes in plant development and growth have been well established, but the architecture of particular assemblies is unclear. In this study, we elucidate the organization of Arabidopsis SWI/SNF complexes formed around a BRM catalytic subunit, and define the requirement of bromodomain-containing proteins BRD1/2/13 for the formation and stability of the entire complex. Using affinity purification followed by mass spectrometry, we identify a set of BRM-associated subunits and demonstrate that the BRM complexes strongly resemble mammalian non-canonical BAF complexes. Furthermore, we identify BDH1 and 2 proteins as components of the BRM complex and, using mutant analyses, show that BDH1/2 are important for vegetative and generative development, as well as hormonal responses. We further show that BRD1/2/13 represent unique subunits of the BRM complexes, and their depletion severely affects the integrity of the complex, resulting in the formation of residual assemblies. Finally, analyses of BRM complexes after proteasome inhibition revealed the existence of a module consisting of the ATPase, ARP, and BDH proteins, assembled with other subunits in a BRD-dependent manner. Together, our results suggest modular organization of plant SWI/SNF complexes and provide a biochemical explanation for mutant phenotypes.
