histone acetyltransferase complex

Definition

Target type: cellularcomponent

A protein complex that possesses histone acetyltransferase activity. [GOC:mah]

The histone acetyltransferase (HAT) complex is a multi-protein assembly that plays a crucial role in regulating gene expression through the acetylation of histone proteins. The cellular component of this complex varies depending on the specific HAT enzyme involved and the cellular context. However, some common components include:

- **Scaffolding Proteins:** These proteins act as a structural framework for the complex, bringing together different HAT subunits and interacting with other regulatory factors. Examples include:
- **KAT5 (Tip60):** A HAT enzyme that interacts with various scaffolding proteins, including p400/CBP and TRRAP, to form distinct HAT complexes.
- **PCAF:** A HAT enzyme that interacts with p400/CBP and other scaffolding proteins.
- **Chromatin Remodeling Factors:** These factors help to loosen the compact structure of chromatin, making DNA more accessible to the HAT complex. Examples include:
- **SWI/SNF Complex:** A large multi-protein complex that uses ATP hydrolysis to remodel chromatin structure.
- **INO80 Complex:** Another chromatin remodeling complex that plays a role in DNA repair and transcription.
- **Histone Chaperones:** These proteins assist in the assembly and deposition of histone proteins onto DNA. Examples include:
- **ASF1a/ASF1b:** Proteins that act as chaperones for histone H3 and H4.
- **NAP1:** A chaperone that assists in the deposition of histones onto DNA.
- **Other Regulatory Proteins:** The HAT complex may also include other proteins that contribute to its activity or specificity. Examples include:
- **Transcription Factors:** These proteins can directly interact with the HAT complex or indirectly influence its activity through regulatory pathways.
- **Co-activators:** These proteins can enhance the activity of HAT enzymes by interacting with them or by modifying the chromatin environment.

The specific composition and function of the HAT complex are dynamically regulated and can vary depending on the cellular context, the target genes, and the developmental stage. These variations allow for the precise control of gene expression in response to various stimuli and cellular needs.'
