Abstract excerpt
The histone acetyltransferase (HAT) GCN5 is the founding member for a family of chromatin remodeling enzymes. GCN5 is the catalytic subunit of a large multi-subunit complex that functions in the regulation of gene activation via acetylation of lysine residues within the N-terminal tails of core histone proteins. Using acetyl-CoA as a co-substrate, the high affinity binding of acetyl-CoA is a critical first step...
