An acetylation-mediated chromatin switch governs H3K4 methylation read-write capability

An acetylation-mediated chromatin switch governs H3K4 methylation read-write capability

In nucleosomes, histone N-terminal tails exist in dynamic equilibrium between free/accessible and collapsed/DNA-bound states. The latter state is expected to impact histone N-termini availability to the epigenetic machinery. Notably, H3 tail acetylation (e.g. K9ac, K14ac, K18ac) is linked to increas...
