Two key human transcriptional coactivator complexes, ATAC (ADA-two-A-containing) and SAGA (Spt-Ada-Gcn5 acetyltransferase), containing histone acetyltransferase (HAT) activity, target genomic loci to increase promoter accessibility. To better understand the function of ATAC and SAGA HAT complexes, we used in vitro biochemical and biophysical assays to characterize human ATAC and SAGA HAT module interactions with nucleosomes and how a transcription factor (TF) coordinates these interactions.
