[HTML][HTML] Genome-wide mapping of HATs and HDACs reveals distinct functions in active and inactive genes

Z Wang, C Zang, K Cui, DE Schones, A Barski, W Peng… - Cell, 2009 - cell.com
Histone acetyltransferases (HATs) and deacetylases (HDACs) function antagonistically to
control histone acetylation. As acetylation is a histone mark for active transcription, HATs have …
