N-terminal acetylation can stabilize proteins independent of their ubiquitination

Abstract The majority of proteins in mammalian cells are modified by covalent attachment of an acetyl-group to the N-terminus (Nt-acetylation). Paradoxically, Nt-acetylation has been suggested to inhibit as well as to promote substrate degradation. Contrasting these findings, proteome-wide stability...
