Abstract excerpt
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, newly synthesized histones H3 are acetylated on lysine 56 (H3 K56ac) by the Rtt109 acetyltransferase prior to their deposition on nascent DNA behind replication forks. Two deacetylases of the sirtuin family, Hst3 and Hst4, remove H3 K56ac from chromatin after S phase. hst3Δ hst4Δ cells present constitutive H3 K56ac, which sensitizes cells to replicative stress via unclear mechanisms....
