Function

Catalytic subunit of the NuA4 histone acetyltransferase complex, a multiprotein complex involved in transcriptional activation of select genes principally by acetylation of nucleosomal histones H2A and H4 (PubMed : 12776177, PubMed : 14966270, PubMed : 15042092, PubMed : 15121871, PubMed : 15310756, PubMed : 16387653, PubMed : 19909775, PubMed : 25865756, PubMed : 27153538, PubMed : 29174981, PubMed : 29335245, PubMed : 32822602, PubMed : 33076429). Histone acetylation alters nucleosome-DNA interactions and promotes interaction of the modified histones with other proteins which positively regulate transcription (PubMed : 12776177, PubMed : 14966270, PubMed : 15042092, PubMed : 15121871, PubMed : 15310756). The NuA4 histone acetyltransferase complex is required for the activation of transcriptional programs associated with proto-oncogene mediated growth induction, tumor suppressor mediated growth arrest and replicative senescence, apoptosis, and DNA repair (PubMed : 17709392, PubMed : 19783983, PubMed : 32832608). The NuA4 complex plays a direct role in repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) by promoting homologous recombination (HR) : the complex inhibits TP53BP1 binding to chromatin via MBTD1, which recognizes and binds histone H4 trimethylated at 'Lys-20' (H4K20me), and KAT5 that catalyzes acetylation of 'Lys-15' of histone H2A (H2AK15ac), thereby blocking the ubiquitination mark required for TP53BP1 localization at DNA breaks (PubMed : 27153538, PubMed : 32832608). Also involved in DSB repair by mediating acetylation of 'Lys-5' of histone H2AX (H2AXK5ac), promoting NBN/NBS1 assembly at the sites of DNA damage (PubMed : 17709392, PubMed : 26438602). The NuA4 complex plays a key role in hematopoietic stem cell maintenance and is required to maintain acetylated H2A.Z/H2AZ1 at MYC target genes (By similarity). The NuA4 complex is also required for spermatid development by promoting acetylation of histones : histone hyperacetylation is required for histone replacement during the transition from round to elongating spermatids (By similarity). Component of a SWR1-like complex that specifically mediates the removal of histone H2A.Z/H2AZ1 from the nucleosome (PubMed : 24463511). Also acetylates non-histone proteins, such as BMAL1, ATM, AURKB, CHKA, CGAS, ERCC4/XPF, LPIN1, TP53/p53, NDC80/HEC1, NR1D2, RAN, SOX4, FOXP3, SQSTM1, ULK1 and RUBCNL/Pacer (PubMed : 16141325, PubMed : 17189187, PubMed : 17360565, PubMed : 17996965, PubMed : 24835996, PubMed : 26829474, PubMed : 29040603, PubMed : 30409912, PubMed : 30704899, PubMed : 31857589, PubMed : 32034146, PubMed : 32817552, PubMed : 34077757). Directly acetylates and activates ATM (PubMed : 16141325). Promotes nucleotide excision repair (NER) by mediating acetylation of ERCC4/XPF, thereby promoting formation of the ERCC4-ERCC1 complex (PubMed : 32034146). Relieves NR1D2-mediated inhibition of APOC3 expression by acetylating NR1D2 (PubMed : 17996965). Acts as a regulator of regulatory T-cells (Treg) by catalyzing FOXP3 acetylation, thereby promoting FOXP3 transcriptional repressor activity (PubMed : 17360565, PubMed : 24835996). Involved in skeletal myoblast differentiation by mediating acetylation of SOX4 (PubMed : 26291311). Catalyzes acetylation of APBB1/FE65, increasing its transcription activator activity (PubMed : 33938178). Promotes transcription elongation during the activation phase of the circadian cycle by catalyzing acetylation of BMAL1, promoting elongation of circadian transcripts (By similarity). Together with GSK3 (GSK3A or GSK3B), acts as a regulator of autophagy : phosphorylated at Ser-86 by GSK3 under starvation conditions, leading to activate acetyltransferase activity and promote acetylation of key autophagy regulators, such as ULK1 and RUBCNL/Pacer (PubMed : 30704899). Acts as a regulator of the cGAS-STING innate antiviral response by catalyzing acetylation the N-terminus of CGAS, thereby promoting CGAS DNA-binding and activation (PubMed : 32817552). Also regulates lipid metabolism by mediating acetylation of CHKA or LPIN1 (PubMed : 34077757). Promotes lipolysis of lipid droplets following glucose deprivation by mediating acetylation of isoform 1 of CHKA, thereby promoting monomerization of CHKA and its conversion into a tyrosine-protein kinase (PubMed : 34077757). Acts as a regulator of fatty-acid-induced triacylglycerol synthesis by catalyzing acetylation of LPIN1, thereby promoting the synthesis of diacylglycerol (PubMed : 29765047). In addition to protein acetyltransferase, can use different acyl-CoA substrates, such as (2E)-butenoyl-CoA (crotonyl-CoA), S-lactoyl-CoA (lactyl-CoA) and 2-hydroxyisobutanoyl-CoA (2-hydroxyisobutyryl-CoA), and is able to mediate protein crotonylation, lactylation and 2-hydroxyisobutyrylation, respectively (PubMed : 29192674, PubMed : 34608293, PubMed : 38961290). Acts as a key regulator of chromosome segregation and kinetochore-microtubule attachment during mitosis by mediating acetylation or crotonylation of target proteins (PubMed : 26829474, PubMed : 29040603, PubMed : 30409912, PubMed : 34608293). Catalyzes acetylation of AURKB at kinetochores, increasing AURKB activity and promoting accurate chromosome segregation in mitosis (PubMed : 26829474). Acetylates RAN during mitosis, promoting microtubule assembly at mitotic chromosomes (PubMed : 29040603). Acetylates NDC80/HEC1 during mitosis, promoting robust kinetochore-microtubule attachment (PubMed : 30409912). Catalyzes crotonylation of MAPRE1/EB1, thereby ensuring accurate spindle positioning in mitosis (PubMed : 34608293). Catalyzes lactylation of NBN/NBS1 in response to DNA damage, thereby promoting DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) via homologous recombination (HR) (PubMed : 38961290).. (Microbial infection) Catalyzes the acetylation of flavivirus NS3 protein to modulate their RNA-binding and -unwinding activities leading to facilitate viral replication.

Post-translational modifications

Phosphorylated on Ser-86 and Ser-90; enhanced during G2/M phase (PubMed:12468530, PubMed:26829474, PubMed:29335245). The phosphorylated form has a higher activity (PubMed:12468530, PubMed:29335245). Phosphorylation at Ser-90 by CDK1 or CDK9 is a prerequisite for phosphorylation at Ser-86 by GSK3 (PubMed:26829474, PubMed:30704899). Phosphorylation at Ser-86 by GSK3 (GSK3A or GSK3B) activates acetyltransferase and acyltransferase activities (PubMed:30704899). Phosphorylation at Ser-90 by CDK9 promotes KAT5 recruitment to chromatin (PubMed:29335245). Phosphorylation by VRK1 following DNA damage promotes KAT5 association with chromatin and histone acetyltransferase activity (PubMed:33076429).. Autoacetylated (PubMed:20100829, PubMed:24835996, PubMed:25301942, PubMed:26291311, PubMed:33938178). Autoacetylation is required for histone acetyltransferase activity (PubMed:20100829, PubMed:25865756). Autoacetylation at Lys-327 is facilitated by interaction with EP300/p300: it prevents ubiquitination and subsequent degradation by the proteasome and promotes acetylation of target proteins (PubMed:24835996). Deacetylated by HDAC3 and SIRT1 (PubMed:20100829, PubMed:25301942). Deacetylation by HDAC3 promotes its ubiquitination and cytoplasmic localization (PubMed:25301942).. Sumoylated by UBE2I at Lys-430 and Lys-451, leading to increase of its histone acetyltransferase activity in UV-induced DNA damage response, as well as its translocation to nuclear bodies (PubMed:17704809). Sumoylation with SUMO2 by PIAS4 at Lys-430 promotes repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) via homologous recombination (HR) (PubMed:32832608). Sumoylation by PIAS4 impairs interaction with PRKDC, inhibiting non-homologous end joining (NHEJ)-mediated repair of DSBs, thereby facilitating HR (PubMed:32832608). Desumoylated by SENP3 (PubMed:32832608).. Ubiquitinated by MDM2, leading to its proteasome-dependent degradation (PubMed:11927554, PubMed:24835996). Ubiquitination is prevented by autoacetylation at Lys-327 (PubMed:24835996). Ubiquitinated following deacetylation by HDAC3, leading to cytoplasmic localization (PubMed:25301942). Deubiquitinated by USP7 following interaction with ATF3, promoting its stabilization (PubMed:25865756).. (Microbial infection) In case of HIV-1 infection, interaction with the viral Tat protein leads to KAT5 polyubiquitination and targets it to degradation.
