The role of the coactivators could be just as bridging factors, although some of the members of the p160 family and CBP/p300 present histone acetyltransferase activity [ 34 35 ] . Stat3 is a member of the JAK/STAT signaling pathway, which is a transcription factor itself that after activation binds to specific sequences in DNA to regulate expression of genes related to proliferation, differentiation and cell survival.
MI01045.cl, the seventh largest Meloidogyne EST cluster, is a new horizontal gene transfer candidate with homology to nodL acetyltransferase from Rhizobium leguminosarum (1e-53).
Visual examination of the structure of this insert domain revealed a topology with elements of both a sandwich and a barrel, and two "waist"-like structures that are characteristic of the sandwich-barrel hybrid motif (SBHM) fold [ 75 76 ] (see also the SCOP database [ 65 ] ). The SBHM fold is present in biotin/lipoate carrier domains and their homologs found in a variety of enzymes and transporters [ 76 ] . A DALI search with this insert domain from the β subunit of Thermus DDRP showed similarity to the SBHMs from various biotin/lipoate-binding enzymes, such as acetyl-CoA carboxylase (1bdo) or dihydrolipoamide acetyltransferase (1iyu) with Z scores of ~6 and RMSD ~2.
Examining the region of ATF-2 that showed HAT activity, the authors found some sequence similarity and at least one motif resembling the acetyltransferase superfamily and concluded that ATF-2 contained a GCN5-like acetyltransferase domain [ 40].
This protein encodes an N -acetyltransferase previously thought to be present only in rhizobia [ 37 ] , where it functions in the biosynthesis of Nod factor.
