In this issue of Structure, Deng et al. (2019) determine the structure of the yeast N-terminal acetyltransferases Naa10 and Naa50 in complex with Naa15 and demonstrate that Naa50 has negligible catalytic activity on its own but modulates Naa10/Naa15. This study provides insights into mechanisms involving amino-terminal acetylation of proteins.
在本期《结构》中,邓等人(2019)确定了酵母 N 端乙酰转移酶 Naa10 和 Naa50 与 Naa15 复合物的结构,并证实 Naa50 自身几乎没有催化活性,但能调节 Naa10/Naa15。这项研究为涉及蛋白质氨基端乙酰化的机制提供了新的见解。
