Characterisation of the paralytic shellfish toxin biosynthesis gene clusters in Anabaena circinalis AWQC131C and Aphanizomenon sp. NH-5
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2009-03-30)Background: Saxitoxin and its analogues collectively known as the paralytic shellfish toxins (PSTs) are neurotoxic alkaloids and are the cause of the syndrome named paralytic shellfish poisoning. PSTs are produced by a ... -
Characterization of hARD2, a processed hARD1 gene duplicate, encoding a human protein N-α-acetyltransferase
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2006-04-25)Background: Protein acetylation is increasingly recognized as an important mechanism regulating a variety of cellular functions. Several human protein acetyltransferases have been characterized, most of them catalyzing ... -
A novel human NatA N-alpha-terminal acetyltransferase complex: hNaa16p-hNaa10p (hNat2-hArd1)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2009-05-29)Background: Protein acetylation is among the most common protein modifications. The two major types are post-translational Nε-lysine acetylation catalyzed by KATs (Lysine acetyltransferases, previously named HATs (histone ...
