Anti-NAT10

N-acetyltransferase 10 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the NAT10 gene. Has protein acetyltransferase activity in vitro. Can acetylate both histones and microtubules. Histone acetylation may regulate transcription and mitotic chromosome de-condensation. Activates telomerase activity by stimulating the transcription of TERT, and may also regulate telomerase function by affecting the balance of telomerase subunit assembly, disassembly, and localization. Protein function: RNA cytidine acetyltransferase with specificity toward both 18S rRNA and tRNAs (PubMed:25653167). Catalyzes the formation of N(4)-acetylcytidine (ac4C) at positions 1337 and 1842 in 18S rRNA. Required for early nucleolar cleavages of precursor rRNA at sites A0, A1 and A2 during 18S rRNA synthesis (PubMed:25653167). Catalyzes the formation of ac4C in serine and leucine tRNAs. Requires the tRNA-binding adapter protein THUMBD1 for full tRNA acetyltransferase activity but not for 18S rRNA acetylation (PubMed:25653167). Can acetylate both histones and microtubules. Histone acetylation may regulate transcription and mitotic chromosome de-condensation. Activates telomerase activity by stimulating the transcription of TERT, and may also regulate telomerase function by affecting the balance of telomerase subunit assembly, disassembly, and localization. Acetylates alpha-tubulin, which may affect microtubule stability and cell division (PubMed:14592445, PubMed:17631499, PubMed:18082603, PubMed:19303003). [The UniProt Consortium]
