MeSH definition : An N-terminal acetyltransferase subtype that consists of the Naa10p catalytic subunit
and the Naa15p auxiliary subunit. The structure of this enzyme is conserved between
lower and higher eukaryotes. It has specificity for N-terminal SERINE; ALANINE; THREONINE;
GLYCINE; VALINE; and CYSTINE residues and acts on nascent peptide chains after the
removal of the initiator METHIONINE by METHIONYL AMINOPEPTIDASES.;
MeSH synonym : N terminal acetyltransferase A; NatA N-Terminal acetyltransferase; N-Terminal acetyltransferase, NatA; NatA N terminal acetyltransferase; N-Terminal acetyltransferase type A; N terminal acetyltransferase type A;
