N-terminal acetylation shields proteins from degradation and promotes age-dependent motility and longevity
2022-09-02
Abstract excerpt
<h4>SUMMARY</h4> Most eukaryotic proteins are N-terminally acetylated, but the functional impact on a global scale has remained obscure. Using genome-wide CRISPR knockout screens in human cells, we reveal a strong genetic dependency between a major N-terminal acetyltransferase and specific ubiquitin ligases. Biochemical analyses uncover that both the ubiquitin ligase complex UBR4-KCMF1 and the acetyltransferase N...
