Molecular basis for hierarchical histone de-β-hydroxybutyrylation by SIRT3
9 Jul 2019
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Chemical modifications on histones constitute a key mechanism for gene regulation in chromatin context. Recently, histone lysine β-hydroxybutyrylation (Kbhb) was identified as a new form of histone acylation that connects starvation-responsive metabolism to epigenetic regulation. Sirtuins are a family of NAD + -dependent deacetylases. Through systematic profiling studies, we show that human SIRT3...
