Abstract excerpt
NAT10, an important member of GNAT family, harbors histone acetyltransferase and participates in many cellular processes such as ribosome production and cell cycle. Here, we report that NAT10 is acetylated in vivo and autoacetylated in vitro. The lysine residue at 426 (K426) is the acetylation site of NAT10. K426R mutant of NAT10 fails to activate rRNA transcription. NAT10 K426R loses its capability of...
