| Function | Acetyltransferase that acetylates in vitro histones H2A and H3. Does not act as a transcriptional activator but might be involved in the sink-source transition. In case of begomoviruses infection, acetylates the capsid protein (CP), but not the nuclear shuttle protein (NSP). Required for begomovirus infection and systemic spread. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12837950, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15452236, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16461385}. |
| Subcellular Location | Nucleus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12837950}. |
| Tissue Specificity | Highly expressed in cauline leaves, at lower levels in stems, siliques, inflorescences and rosettes leaves and at very low levels in roots. Expressed in the xylem parenchyma and phloem of the leaves and root, and in guard cells of young leaves. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12837950, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16461385}. |
