The Gcn5-containing complexes are large distinct multi-protein transcriptional co-activator complexes that contain Gcn5, a conserved histone acetyltransferase (HAT) as one of the catalytic subunits. These complexes possess global histone acetylation activity and locus-specific co-activator functions. (Adapted from
