| Type: | Domain | Name: | Histone acetyl transferase HAT1 N-terminal |
| Description: | This entry represents the N-terminal half of the structure of histone acetyl transferase HAT1. It is often found in association with the C-terminal part of . It seems to be motifs C and D of the structure. Histone acetyltransferases (HATs) catalyse the transfer of an acetyl group from acetyl-CoA to the lysine E-amino groups on the N-terminal tails of histones. HATs are involved in transcription since histones tend to be hyper-acetylated in actively transcribed regions of chromatin, whereas in transcriptionally silent regions histones are hypo-acetylated []. | Short Name: | Hat1_N |
