Background The modification of glucose import capacity is an engineering strategy that has
been shown to improve the characteristics of Escherichia coli as a microbial factory. A …

Recent studies revealed that acetylation is a widely used protein modification in prokaryotic
organisms. The major protein acetylation acetyltransferase YfiQ and the sirtuin-like …

ABSTRACT Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) O157: H7 is a common food-borne
pathogen that can cause acute diseases. Lysine acetylation is a post-translational …

Post‐translational modifications (PTMs) play an essential role in most biological processes.
PTMs on human proteins have been extensively studied. Studies on bacterial PTMs are …

The de novo pyrimidine biosynthesis pathway is an important route due to the relevance of
its products, its implications in health and its conservation among organisms. Here, we …

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is an indispensable cofactor in all domains of
life, and its homeostasis must be regulated tightly. Here we report that a Nudix-related …

Lysine acetylation (KAc) is a reversible post-translational modification (PTM) that can alter
protein structure and function; however, specific roles for KAc are largely undefined in …

Background Acetylation of lysine residues is a reversible post-translational modification
conserved from bacteria to humans. Several recent studies have revealed hundreds of …

Protein lysine acetylation, one of the most abundant post-translational modifications in
eukaryotes, occurs in prokaryotes as well. Despite the evidence of lysine acetylation in …

Glucokinase (GK) catalyzes the phosphorylation of glucose to form glucose‐6‐phosphate as
the substrate of glycolysis for energy production. Acetylation of lysine residues in …
