Bacteria employ lysine acetylation of transcriptional regulators to adapt gene expression to cellular metabolism
Abstract The Escherichia coli TetR-related transcriptional regulator RutR is involved in the coordination of pyrimidine and purine metabolism. Here we report that lysine acetylation modulates RutR function. Applying the genetic code expansion concept, we produced site-specifically lysine-acetylated...
