Abstract

One of the major advances in our understanding of gene regulation in eukaryotes was the discovery of factors that regulate transcription by controlling chromatin structure. Prominent among these discoveries was the demonstration that Gcn5 is a histone acetyltransferase, establishing a direct connection between transcriptional activation and histone acetylation. This breakthrough was soon followed by the purification of a protein complex that contains Gcn5, the SAGA complex. In this article, we review the early genetic and biochemical experiments that led to the discovery of SAGA and the elucidation of its multiple activities.
