Figures & data

Figure 1. (A) Genes that are silenced by Polycomb-mediated H3K27me3 (K27me) can be occupied by p300/CBP. Association of p300/CBP with silent or poised transcriptional enhancers (with or without H3K27me3) does not result in histone acetylation. (B) At active genes, p300/CBP can acetylate histones on H3K27 (K27ac) and H3K18 (not shown), acetylate transcription factors (Ac), function as a scaffolds for recruiting other proteins, or help establish a preinitiation complex by interactions with TFIIB and hypophosphorylated RNA polymerase II.
