Structure of the alpha-tubulin acetyltransferase, alpha-TAT1
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 23071314
Function
[ATAT_HUMAN] Specifically acetylates 'Lys-40' in alpha-tubulin on the lumenal side of microtubules. May affect microtubule stability and regulate microtubule dynamics. May be involved in neuron development.[1]
