Abstract excerpt
A cellular target of adenovirus E1A oncoprotein, p300 is a transcriptional coactivator required for the maintenance of differentiated phenotypes in cardiac myocytes. The full transcriptional activities of hypertrophy-responsive transcription factors such as GATA-4 and MEF2 require interaction with p300. A p300 protein also possesses intrinsic histone acetyl transferase activity, which promotes a transcriptionally...
