YfmK is an N ε -lysine acetyltransferase that directly acetylates the histone-like protein HBsu in Bacillus subtilis

Abstract excerpt

Significance N ε -lysine acetylation is a dynamic regulatory posttranslational modification that affects hundreds of proteins in all three domains of life. In bacteria, acetylated proteins can be found in many essential pathways, and may also be important for virulence in pathogenic species. However, the biological relevance of the overwhelming majority of these acetylation events remains poorly characterized....
