Abstract excerpt
DNA-binding activators and repressors recruit histone acetylases and deacetylases to promoters, thereby generating localized domains of modified histones that influence transcriptional activity. At the end of a transcriptional response, alterations in histone acetylation status are reversed, but the dynamics of this process are poorly understood. Here, we recruit histone deacetylases and acetylases to a...
