Lysine Acetylation Goes Global: From Epigenetics to Metabolism and Therapeutics.

Chemical Reviews, 2018
Post-translational acetylation of lysine residues has emerged as a key regulatory mechanism in all eukaryotic organisms. Originally discovered in 1963 as a unique modification of histones, acetylation marks are now found on thousands of nonhistone ...

Epigenetics in ovarian cancer: premise, properties, and perspectives. [PDF]

, 2018
Malignant ovarian tumors bear the highest mortality rate among all gynecological cancers. Both late tumor diagnosis and tolerance to available chemical therapy increase patient mortality.

Spotlight on protein N-terminal acetylation

Experimental and Molecular Medicine, 2018
N-terminal acetylation (Nt-acetylation) is a widespread protein modification among eukaryotes and prokaryotes alike. By appending an acetyl group to the N-terminal amino group, the charge, hydrophobicity, and size of the N-terminus is altered in an ...

Why Is p53 Acetylated? [PDF]

Cell, 2001
Recent studies suggest that acetylation of the p53 tumor suppressor protein is not important for its DNA binding activity, as was previously thought. We discuss here a number of theories as to how this modification may serve to regulate the protein's functions.

Acetylation of graphite oxide

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics, 2020
Unlike many methods of chemical modification of Graphite Oxide (GO) reported during 1930–1960 and re-studied in much detail over the last decade, acetylation somehow escaped attention and remained almost completely unexplored.

Influence of N^ε-Lysine Acetylation on the Formation of Protein Aggregates and Antibiotic Persistence in E. coli

Molecules
Numerous studies indicate that reversible Nε-lysine acetylation in bacteria may play a key role in the regulation of metabolic processes, transcription and translation, biofilm formation, virulence, and drug resistance.

RNA cytidine acetyltransferase of small-subunit ribosomal RNA: identification of acetylation sites and the responsible acetyltransferase in fission yeast, Schizosaccharomyces pombe. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
The eukaryotic small-subunit (SSU) ribosomal RNA (rRNA) has two evolutionarily conserved acetylcytidines. However, the acetylation sites and the acetyltransferase responsible for the acetylation have not been identified.

Studying Acetylation of Aconitase Isozymes by Genetic Code Expansion

Frontiers in Chemistry, 2022
Aconitase catalyzes the second reaction of the tricarboxylic acid cycle, the reversible conversion of citrate and isocitrate. Escherichia coli has two isoforms of aconitase, AcnA and AcnB. Acetylomic studies have identified acetylation at multiple lysine

The bromodomain-containing protein Ibd1 links multiple chromatin related protein complexes to highly expressed genes in Tetrahymena thermophila [PDF]

Epigenetics & Chromatin (2018) 11:10, 2018
Background: The chromatin remodelers of the SWI/SNF family are critical transcriptional regulators. Recognition of lysine acetylation through a bromodomain (BRD) component is key to SWI/SNF function; in most eukaryotes, this function is attributed to SNF2/Brg1.
