Application
- Nε-Acetyl L-α Lysine Improves Activity and Stability of α-Amylase at Acidic Conditions: A Comparative Study with other Osmolytes. This study highlights the use of Nε-Acetyl-ʟ-lysine in enhancing the functional stability and activity of α-amylase under acidic conditions, demonstrating its potential as a valuable additive in industrial enzyme applications (Joghee et al., 2020).
Biochem/physiol Actions
Nε-Acetyl-L-lysine (L-AcK) is an R-chain N-acetylated α amino acid used together with other lysine analogues to differentiate and characterized various aminoacylases and regulator 2 (Sir2) enzymes/sirtuins.

By overexpressing the C-terminal domain of the ribosomal protein L11 to decrease release factor 1-mediated termination of protein translation, enhanced amber suppression is achieved in E. coli. This enhanced amber suppression efficiency allows the genetic incorporation of three N(epsilon)-acetyl-l-lysines into

Tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) is a powerful tool for characterization of post-translationally modified proteins, including epsilon-N-acetyllysine-containing species. Previous reports indicate that epsilon-N-acetyllysine immonium ions are useful marker ions for peptides containing epsilon-N-acetyllysine, but the specificity and sensitivity of these ions

Inhibitors of histone deacetylase (HD) are of great potential as new drugs due to their ability to influence transcriptional regulation and to induce apoptosis or differentiation in cancer cells. So far only radioactive enzyme activity assays or in-vivo assays with

Antibodies directed against chemical specific protein modifications are valuable tools to detect and comparatively quantify protein modifications. Both Nepsilon-(dichloroacetyl)-L-lysine and Nepsilon-(trichloroacety)l-L-lysine have been detected as modified amino acids in liver and kidneys of rats treated with perchloroethene (PER) after proteolysis.

N(epsilon)-acetylation of lysine (1) is a reversible post-translational modification with a regulatory role that rivals that of phosphorylation in eukaryotes. No general methods exist to synthesize proteins containing N(epsilon)-acetyllysine (2) at defined sites. Here we demonstrate the site-specific incorporation of
