Acetyltransferases and tumour suppression [PDF]

open access: yesBreast Cancer Research, 2000
The acetyltransferase p300 was first identified associated with the adenoviral transforming protein E1A, suggesting a potential role for p300 in the regulation of cell proliferation. Direct evidence demonstrating a role for p300 in human tumours was lacking until the recently publication by Gayther et al, which strongly supports a role for p300 as a ...

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.

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.

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.

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

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 (

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.

PanM, an Acetyl-Coenzyme A Sensor Required for Maturation of l-Aspartate Decarboxylase (PanD)

open access: yesmBio, 2012
Coenzyme A (CoA) is essential for cellular chemistry in all forms of life. The pantothenate moiety of CoA is generated from the condensation of pantoate and β-alanine.

Transcription shapes genome-wide histone acetylation patterns

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Histone acetylation is a ubiquitous hallmark of transcription. Here the authors provide evidence that the majority of histone acetylation is dependent on transcription, specifically due to the requirement of RNAPII for the recruitment and activity of ...
