Schematic overview of lysine acetylation and deacetylation. Lysine acetylation, which is catalyzed by KATs, involves transfer of an acetyl group from Ac-CoA to the ε-amino side chain of lysine or occurs nonenzymatically. Deacetylation of lysine residues is catalyzed by Zn2+-dependent HDACs or by NAD+-dependent SIRTs. NAD+, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide.
