Abstract excerpt
The N-terminal acetyltransferase B (NatB) acetylates ~20% of the eukaryotic proteome. However, the role of NatB-mediated N-terminal acetylation (NTA) for the regulation of the proteome fate remains unclear in eukaryotes. In this study, we demonstrate that CRISPR-Cas9-mediated deletion of NatB activity in plants results in significantly lowered global protein turnover due to decreased ubiquitin-proteasome system...
