N-terminal acetylation shields proteins from degradation and promotes age-dependent motility and longevity

N-terminal acetylation shields proteins from degradation and promotes age-dependent motility and longevity

Abstract Most eukaryotic proteins are N-terminally acetylated, but the functional impact on a global scale has remained obscure. Using genome-wide CRISPR knockout screens in human cells, we reveal a strong genetic dependency between a major N-terminal acetyltransferase and specific ubiquitin ligases...
