Ancestral protein reconstruction reveals the mechanism of substrate specificity in FN3K-mediated deglycation
2025-09-22
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Protein glycation is a detrimental byproduct of carbohydrate metabolism, and nearly all organisms encode kinases that facilitate the removal of early glycation products. In humans, these repair functions are performed by Fructosamine-3 and Ketosamine-3 kinases (FN3K, KT3K). Recent structural studies identified conserved residues essential for FN3K activity, but the molecular basis for s...
