Abstract
Besides the fundamental components of the chromatin, DNA and octameric histone, the non-histone chromatin proteins and non-coding RNA play a critical role in the organization of functional chromatin domains. The non-histone chromatin proteins therefore regulate the transcriptional outcome in both physiological and pathophysiological state as well. They also help to maintain the epigenetic state of the genome indirectly. Several transcription factors and histone interacting factors also contribute in the maintenance of the epigenetic states, especially acetylation by the induction of autoacetylation ability of p300/CBP. Alterations of KAT activity have been found to be causally related to disease manifestation, and thus could be potential therapeutic target.
