Table I. Sequence context of acetylatable lysines in histones H3 and H4 from S.cerevisiae.

Histone Acetylatable lysine Sequence
H3 9 RKSTG
H3 14 GKAPR
H3 18 RKQLA
H3 23 SKAAR
H4 5 GKGGK
H4 8 GKGLG
H4 12 GKGGA
H4 16 AKRHR

The table shows the sequences from K – 1 to K + 3, where K is the acetylatable lysine. Residues that could potentially make secondary interactions with the Gcn5p bromodomain are shown in bold.
