Figure 5.
Structural basis of H3-K(ac)14 binding to Brd4 BD1. A, complex structure of the bromodomain 42–166 with the peptide GGK(ac)A from H3 (green). B, hydrogen bonds between the H3 peptide and the essential asparagine Asn-140 in BD1 define the interaction network. Several water molecules (colored red) in the binding cavity of the bromodomain surround the acetyl moiety.
