Polyglutamine Disease: Acetyltransferases Awry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Recent evidence indicates that inhibition of histone acetyltransferases may be a primary cause of cellular pathogenesis in polyglutamine diseases such as Huntington disease; the results raise the possibility that pharmacologic manipulation of protein ...

Investigations of N-acetyltransferases in human hepatocytes and rat models. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
This thesis begins by reviewing human N-acetyltransferases (Chapter I), then outlines experiments involving human hepatocytes and rat N-acetyltransferases (Chapters II-V).

Structural insights into WcbI, a novel polysaccharide-biosynthesis enzyme

open access: yesIUCrJ, 2014
Capsular polysaccharides (CPSs) are protective structures on the surfaces of many Gram-negative bacteria. The principal CPS of the human pathogen and Tier 1 select agent Burkholderia pseudomallei consists of a linear repeat of –3)-2-O-acetyl-6-deoxy-β-d ...

Histone Lysine and Genomic Targets of Histone Acetyltransferases in Mammals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Histone acetylation has been recognized as an important post-translational modification of core nucleosomal histones that changes access to the chromatin to allow gene transcription, DNA replication, and repair.

Regulating histone acetyltransferases and deacetylases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Histone acetyltransferases and histone deacetylases regulate the acetylation of histones and transcription factors, and in doing so have major roles in the control of cell fate. Many recent results have indicated that their function is strictly regulated

Structural and molecular rationale for the diversification of resistance mediated by the Antibiotic_NAT family

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2022
A comprehensive functional and structural study of the Antibiotic_NAT family of aminoglycoside acetyltransferases provides new insight into the molecular mechanisms underlying resistance to existing and emerging aminoglycoside antibiotics.

Dynamic chromatin: concerted nucleosome remodelling and acetylation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The flexibility of chromatin that enables translation of environmental cues into changes in genome utilisation, relies on a battery of enzymes able to modulate chromatin structure in a highly targeted and regulated manner.

A random sequential mechanism of aminoglycoside acetylation by Mycobacterium tuberculosis Eis protein.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
An important cause of bacterial resistance to aminoglycoside antibiotics is the enzymatic acetylation of their amino groups by acetyltransferases, which abolishes their binding to and inhibition of the bacterial ribosome. Enhanced intracellular survival (

MORF and MOZ acetyltransferases target unmethylated CpG islands through the winged helix domain

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Human acetyltransferases MOZ and MORF mediate development programs and are dysregulated in diseases. Here the authors identified two winged helix (WH) domains in MORF/MOZ and characterized their DNA binding functions, including targeting of CpG by WH1.
