| Function |
Catalytic histone acetyltransferase subunit of the RNA polymerase II elongator complex, which is a component of the RNA polymerase II (Pol II) holoenzyme and is involved in transcriptional elongation. Elongator may play a role in chromatin remodeling and is involved in acetylation of histones H3 and probably H4. Involved in acetylation of alpha-tubulin (PubMed:19185337). May also have a methyltransferase activity. Involved in cell migration. Involved in neurogenesis. Regulates the migration and branching of projection neurons in the developing cerebral cortex, through a process depending on alpha- tubulin acetylation (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9CZX0, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11714725, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11818576, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15902492, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16713582, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19185337}.
