Epigenetic Regulation of Matrix Metalloproteinase-1 and -3 Expression in Mycobacterium tuberculosis Infection. [PDF]

, 2017
In pulmonary tuberculosis (TB), the inflammatory immune response against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is associated with tissue destruction and cavitation, which drives disease transmission, chronic lung disease, and mortality.

Inhibition of histone acetyltransferase by glycosaminoglycans [PDF]

Journal of Cellular Biochemistry, 2008
AbstractHistone acetyltransferases (HATs) are a class of enzymes that participate in modulating chromatin structure and gene expression. Altered HAT activity has been implicated in a number of diseases, yet little is known about the regulation of HATs.

Enhancing transporter activity in heterologous expression systems with SAHA: a 2500‐times more potent and odorless alternative to butyrate

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Heterologous expression of membrane transporters in cultured cells is essential for functional characterization, but is sometimes limited by low activity. Our study compares the HDAC inhibitors butyrate, VPA and SAHA to enhance transport activity. We propose to replace butyrate by SAHA: it is equally effective, devoid of repulsive odor, costs less, and

Lysine acetyltransferase 5 in EGFR mutated non-small cell lung cancer [PDF]

, 2018
Histone modifications are crucial in activities such as transcriptional activation, gene silencing, and epigenetic cellular memory. In particular, lysine acetylation via lysine (K) acetyltransferases (KATs) has been implicated in cancer development ...

Is acetylation a metabolic rheostat that regulates skeletal muscle insulin action? [PDF]

, 2015
Skeletal muscle insulin resistance, which increases the risk for developing various metabolic diseases, including type 2 diabetes, is a common metabolic disorder in obesity and aging.

KAT2A/KAT2B-targeted acetylome reveals a role for PLK4 acetylation in preventing centrosome amplification

Nature Communications, 2016
The acetyltransferases KAT2A and KAT2B are essential regulators of transcription, cell cycle progression and DNA repair. Here the authors describe a KAT2A/2B-dependent acetylome, and show that acetylation of the protein kinase PLK4 contributes to the ...

Inhibition of histone acetyltransferase function radiosensitizes CREBBP/EP300 mutants via repression of homologous recombination, potentially targeting a gain of function

Nature Communications, 2021
Mutations in histone acetyltransferases (HATs) CREBBP and EP300 are generally thought to lead to decreased function or absence of protein product.

A Continuous Assay Set to Screen and Characterize Novel Protein N-Acetyltransferases Unveils Rice General Control Non-repressible 5-Related N-Acetyltransferase2 Activity

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Protein N-acetyltransferases (NATs) belong to the general control non-repressible 5 (Gcn5)-related N-acetyltransferases (GNATs) superfamily. GNATs catalyze the transfer of acetyl from acetyl-CoA to the reactive amine moiety of a wide range of acceptors ...

The Regulation of Trace Metal Elements in Cancer Ferroptosis

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.
The induction of ferroptosis inhibits tumor growth, enhances anticancer efficacy, and overcomes drug resistance. Recent evidence shows nonferrous metal elements play a role in ferroptosis. This review focuses on how trace metals regulate ferroptosis processes like iron accumulation, lipid peroxidation, and antioxidant defense.

Omics assisted N-terminal proteoform and protein expression profiling on methionine aminopeptidase 1 (MetAP1) deletion [PDF]

, 2018
Excision of the N-terminal initiator methionine (iMet) residue from nascent peptide chains is an essential and omnipresent protein modification carried out by methionine aminopeptidases (MetAPs) that accounts for a major source of N-terminal proteoform ...
