Entrez Gene summary for KAT2A Gene:

KAT2A, or GCN5, is a histone acetyltransferase (HAT) that functions primarily as a transcriptional activator. It

also functions as a repressor of NF-kappa-B (see MIM 164011) by promoting ubiquitination of the NF-kappa-B

subunit RELA (MIM 164014) in a HAT-independent manner (Mao et al., 2009 (PubMed 19339690)).(supplied by OMIM, Sep

2009)

GeneCards Summary for KAT2A Gene:

KAT2A (K(lysine) acetyltransferase 2A) is a protein-coding gene. Diseases associated with KAT2A include dosage-sensitive sex reversal, and retinal degeneration. GO annotations related to this gene include histone deacetylase binding and chromatin binding. An important paralog of this gene is BAZ1A.

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: KAT2A_HUMAN, Q92830

Function: Functions as a histone acetyltransferase (HAT) to promote transcriptional activation. Acetylation of

histones gives a specific tag for epigenetic transcription activation. Has significant histone acetyltransferase

activity with core histones, but not with nucleosome core particles. 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. Component of the ATAC complex, a complex with histone acetyltransferase activity on histones H3

and H4
