How are histones acetylated as they emerge from the ribosome? We show that NAA40 cooperates with the NAC complex to enable co-translational acetylation of H2A/H4, revealing NAC as a coordinator of nascent protein modification. Read more about our collaboration with @kirmizislab.bsky.social #cryoEM

NAA40 and NAC cooperate in co-translational histone acetylation in humans
Nature Communications - N-terminal histone acetylation by human NAA40 alters epigenetic signaling and affects gene regulation. Here, the authors combine biochemistry and cryo-EM to unravel the...

📢 Our new paper is out! @kirmizislab.bsky.social H2A.X is N-terminally acetylated by NAA40–a novel histone mod responsive to UV irradiation. Thanks to all authors @bonalditiziana.bsky.social @drksquare.bsky.social, anonymous reviewers and @springernature.com #Epigenetics&Chromatin Editorial team.

H2A.X N-terminal acetylation is a newly identified NAA40-mediated modification that is responsive to UV irradiation - Epigenetics & Chromatin
Background N-terminal acetylation (Nt-Ac), mediated by N-terminal acetyltransferases (NATs) is one of the most abundant protein modifications occurring approximately in 80% of all eukaryotic proteins....

Acetylhistidine in our blood can prevent kidney disease and is produced by the HisAT (NAT16) enzyme displaying a rare double-GNAT structure. Great efforts by Matti Myllykoski and the rest of the team at @unibergen.bsky.social to get this published. #acetyltransferase www.nature.com/articles/s41...
