Histone lysine crotonylation, an evolutionarily conserved post-translational epigenetic modification, involves the reversible covalent attachment of a crotonyl group to the ε-amino group of the lysine side chain, and histone lysine decrotonylation involves the removal of the crotonyl group. Several histone acetyltransferases also have histone crotonyltransferase activity, and several histone deacetylases have histone decrotonylation activities as well.
