ABSTRACT
An important mechanism of gene expression regulation is the epigenetic modification of histones. The cofactors and substrates for these modifications are often intermediary metabolites, and it is becoming increasingly clear that the metabolic and nutritional state of cells can influence these marks. These connections between the balance of metabolites, histone modifications and downstream transcriptional changes comprise a metabolic signaling program that can enable cells to adapt to changes in nutrient availability. Beyond acetylation, there is evidence now that histones can be modified by other acyl groups. In this Cell Science at a Glance article and the accompanying poster, we focus on these histone acylation modifications and provide an overview of the players that govern these acylations and their connections with metabolism.
