Journal ArticleDOI

Gcn5 and Esa1 function as histone crotonyltransferases to regulate crotonylation-dependent transcription.

TL;DR: It is shown that crotonylation selectively affects gene transcription in vivo in a manner dependent on Gcn5 and Esa1, and is identified as bona fideCrotonyltransferases that promote crotonyation-dependent transcription.
Journal ArticleDOI

Opposite role of yeast ING family members in p53-dependent transcriptional activation.

TL;DR: Analysis of the three ING family members present in yeast suggests that the NuA3 complex can function in gene-specific repression, an unusual role for a histone acetyltransferase complex.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bivalent interaction of the PZP domain of BRPF1 with the nucleosome impacts chromatin dynamics and acetylation

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the DNA-binding function of the BRPF1 PZP domain is required for the MOZ-BRPF1-ING5-hEaf6 HAT complex to be recruited to chromatin and to acetylate nucleosomal histones, revealing a novel link between chromatin dynamics and MOz-mediated acetylation.
Journal ArticleDOI

A novel H2A/H4 nucleosomal histone acetyltransferase in Tetrahymena thermophila.

TL;DR: Together, these data document the importance of this novel HAT activity for transcriptional activation from chromatin templates and suggest that a second catalytic HAT subunit, in addition to p55/Gcn5p, is conserved between yeast and Tetrahymena.
