Evolutionary conserved NSL complex/BRD4 axis controls transcription activation via histone acetylation

The MOF acetyltransferase-containing Non-Specific Lethal (NSL) complex is a broad transcription regulator and haploinsufficiency of its KANSL1 subunit results in the Koolen-de Vries syndrome in humans. Here, the authors identify the BET protein BRD4 as evolutionary conserved co-factor of the NSL com...

Sumario:The MOF acetyltransferase-containing Non-Specific Lethal (NSL) complex is a broad transcription regulator and haploinsufficiency of its KANSL1 subunit results in the Koolen-de Vries syndrome in humans. Here, the authors identify the BET protein BRD4 as evolutionary conserved co-factor of the NSL complex and provide evidence that NSL-deposited histone acetylation induces BRD4 recruitment for transcription of constitutively active genes.
