Abstract excerpt
Histones constitute the fundamental component of chromatin and participate in the regulation of gene expression by virtue of covalent modifications to their N-terminal domains. The discovery that histone-modifying enzymes are targeted by the antiprotozoal agent apicidin has prompted further investigation of gene expression regulation in protozoan parasites; consequently, several chromatin remodeling homologues...
