Histone Acetyltransferases and Stem Cell Identity. [PDF]

open access: yesCancers (Basel), 2021
Acetylation of histones is a key epigenetic modification involved in transcriptional regulation. The addition of acetyl groups to histone tails generally reduces histone-DNA interactions in the nucleosome leading to increased accessibility for transcription factors and core transcriptional machinery to bind their target sequences.

Regulating histone acetyltransferases and deacetylases [PDF]

open access: yesEMBO reports, 2003
Histone acetyltransferases and histone deacetylases regulate the acetylation of histones and transcription factors, and in doing so have major roles in the control of cell fate. Many recent results have indicated that their function is strictly regulated in cells through the modulation of their levels, activity and availability for interaction with ...

Histone Lysine and Genomic Targets of Histone Acetyltransferases in Mammals [PDF]

open access: yesBioEssays, 2018
Histone acetylation has been recognized as an important post‐translational modification of core nucleosomal histones that changes access to the chromatin to allow gene transcription, DNA replication, and repair. Histone acetyltransferases were initially identified as co‐activators that link DNA‐binding transcription factors to the general ...

A cancer-specific antigen drives histone acetylation by stabilizing the acetyltransferases

open access: yesCell Reports
Summary: Histone acetylation is a critical modification that regulates gene expression by modulating chromatin structure and function. Histone acetyltransferases are essential for maintaining acetylation homeostasis, and the disruption of this balance ...

The BRCA2 is a histone acetyltransferase [PDF]

open access: yesOncogene, 1998
Patients carrying mutations in BRCA1 or BRCA2 tumor suppressor genes have shown to have high risk in developing breast and ovarian cancers. Two potential functions of BRCA2 were proposed which includes role in the regulation of transcription and also in DNA repair.

HSF1 phosphorylation establishes an active chromatin state via the TRRAP–TIP60 complex and promotes tumorigenesis

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Here the authors show phosphorylation of heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) at S419 via the chromatin-bound kinase PLK1, promotes HSF1 recruitment of histone acetyltransferases and histone acetylation reader proteins TRIM33 and TRIM24, which actually also ...

Discovery of Highly Potent, Selective, and Orally Efficacious p300/CBP Histone Acetyltransferases Inhibitors

open access: yes, 2020
p300 and CREB-binding protein (CBP) are ubiquitously expressed pleiotropic lysine acetyltransferases and play a key role as transcriptional co-activators that are essential for a multitude of cellular processes.

Expression of cPLAγ mRNA and protein differs the response of PBMC from severe and non-severe asthmatics to bacterial lipopolysaccharide and house dust mite allergen

open access: yesInternational Journal of Immunopathology and Pharmacology, 2021
Chronic inflammation in asthmatics is initiated/exacerbated by many environmental factors, such as bacterial lipopolysaccharide and allergens. Phospholipase A 2 and histone acetyltransferase/deacetylases are enzymes involved in inflammatory process ...

Biological functions and therapeutic potential of acylation by histone acetyltransferases

open access: yesActa Materia Medica, 2023
Histone lysine acylation is a major class of histone post-translational modifications involved in essential biological activities, such as transcriptional regulation, DNA-damage repair, and cell-cycle progression.
