YEATS domain

In molecular biology, the YEATS domain is a protein domain found in a variety of proteins from eukaryotic organisms.[1] YEATS domain proteins are found in a variety of chromatin modification molecular complexes. Structurally the domain has an immunoglobulin like fold.[2] The YEATS domain has shown to bind to acetyllysine protein modifications.[3] In addition to lysine acetylation, the YEATS domain has shown to be a reader domain for various lysine acylations, with highest affinity for lysine crotonylation.[4] [5]
