Abstract excerpt
The Elongator complex functions in diverse cellular processes, such as RNA polymerase II transcription and tRNA modification. The Elp3 subunit possesses a C-terminal histone acetyltransferase (HAT) domain and an N-terminal sequence that resembles an iron-sulfur (FeS) cluster motif. The HAT domain is well characterized, but the role of the FeS cluster is unknown, although one report proposed that it might be...
