Mechanism of cotranslational modification of histones H2A and H4 by MetAP1 and NatD NAC enables cotranslational N-terminal processing of histones H2A and H4 by recruiting MetAP1 and NatD at the ribosomal tunnel.

Last X-Mas, the ribosome gave you methionine,
but the very next day, MetAP took it away.
This year, to save histones from tears,
NatD gives you an acetyl group. ⭐️

New paper out in Mol Cell, where we show how N-myristolytransferases lipidate proteins on the translating ribosome!
Continuing our successful collaboration with DeuerlingLab @uni-konstanz.de & Shu-ou Chan @caltech.edu
