Tideglusib as a First-in-Class Chemical Probe for NatA: Identification, Mechanism, and Cellular Validation of an Allosteric, CoA-Dependent Inhibitor.

N-terminal acetyltransferase A (NatA) catalyzes 40-57% of eukaryotic Nα-acetylation, a co-translational modification critical for protein stability, localization, and function, yet no validated small-molecule probe of NatA has been reported. Here, we describe the discovery and characterization of tideglusib (YD3139), a...
