Transcriptional coactivators in yeast and beyond.
Coactivators are a novel class of transcriptional activator required at many eukaryotic promoters. Several coactivators have now been isolated, their identification often facilitated by genetic studies in yeast. Some of the proposed mechanisms of coactivator function may help explain synergy between transcriptional activators at eukaryotic promoters.
