“…Multiple H3K4me3-binding proteins are present in yeast, which in turn are members of histone modifying and repositioning complexes. Binding of Yng1, Yng2 or Sgf29 would recruit NuA3, NuA4 or SAGA histone acetyl transferase complexes respectively, promoting local histone acetylation that should enhance transcriptional activation (Agalioti et al, 2002;Bian et al, 2011;Pokholok et al, 2005;Steunou et al, 2016;Taverna et al, 2006). Loss of recruitment of NuA3 and NuA4 to H3K4me3 has remarkably little effect on gene expression under normal conditions (Choy et al, 2001;Taverna et al, 2006), but may well impact a specific subset of genes when induced or during dramatic chromatin remodelling of the sort that occurs during ageing; indeed delays in induction of individual genes have been reported in mutants lacking H3K4me3-linked acetyltransferase recruitment (Bian et al, 2011;Morillon et al, 2005).…”
