Protein info

Function

Functions as a histone acetyltransferase (HAT) to promote transcriptional activation. Has significant histone acetyltransferase activity with core histones (H3 and H4), and also with nucleosome core particles. Inhibits cell-cycle progression and counteracts the mitogenic activity of the adenoviral oncoprotein E1A. In case of HIV-1 infection, it is recruited by the viral protein Tat. Regulates Tat's transactivating activity and may help inducing chromatin remodeling of proviral genes.

Tissue specificity

Ubiquitously expressed but most abundant in heart and skeletal muscle.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the GCN5 family.
Contains 1 bromo domain.
Contains 1 N-acetyltransferase domain.

Domain

The bromodomain mediates binding to HIV-1 Tat.

Cellular localization

Nucleus.
