ASCH Domains and N4-Acetylcytidine Processing
2026-08-13
Meng et al. define how the E. coli ASCH-domain protein EcYqfB converts free N4-acetylcytidine into cytidine while showing that it is not responsible for removing ac4C from RNA. Crystal structures of EcYqfB, mouse EOLA1, and the human TRIP4-ASCH domain reveal substrate-pocket differences that refine interpretation of ASCH proteins in nucleotide metabolism and RNA biology.
