Abstract excerpt
Acetylation of lysine residues at the H3 N terminus is proposed to function in replication-coupled (RC) nucleosome assembly, a process critical for the inheritance of epigenetic information and maintenance of genome stability. However, the role of H3 N-terminal lysine acetylation and the corresponding lysine acetyltransferase (KAT) in RC nucleosome assembly are not known. Here we show that Gcn5, a KAT that...
