I190A/L191A/Y193A/I194A | site-directed mutagenesis, enzyme deletions suggest membrane interaction by two regions matching the predicted helices (Pred), hydrophobic amino acids in Pred-alpha are mutated. The I190A/L191A/Y193A/I194A mutation, which involves two of the buried amino acids from Pred-alpha1, causes a mixed organellar and cytosolic localization in contrast to the wild-type. This mutation either causes only partially impaired membrane integration of Pred-alpha1 or additional segments are able to maintain some membrane association without Pred-alpha1. Truncation and deletion constructs of eGFP-tagged Naa60 demonstrate regions in the C-terminal tail important for membrane association in cellulo | Homo sapiens |
I209W/W227F | site-directed mutagenesis | Homo sapiens |
L197A/L201A/L204A/I209A | site-directed mutagenesis, the mutation results in a mixed localization of the enzyme, with a partial and almost completely extractable organellar fraction, but with a more severe degree of mislocalization compared with mutant I190A/L191A/Y193A/I194A | Homo sapiens |

Golgi membrane | Naa60 attaches to membranes of the Golgi apparatus. Molecular determinants for the interaction of Naa60 with the membrane by means of computational modeling, in vitro liposome assays including intrinsic tryptophan fluorescence, circular dichroism, and isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC), and mutational analysis combined with localization determination in cellulo. Model of Naa60 membrane association and N-terminal acetylation at the membrane, overview. Peripheral binding to Golgi-like liposomes. Naa60 has a preference for phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate which may recruit it to the Golgi membrane mainly through Arg212 and Arg215 of Pred-alpha2, and through Lys233 and Arg240 of the C-terminal tail | Homo sapiens | 139 | - |
additional information | the C-terminal tail of Naa60 (amino acids 182-242), which constitutes an extra segment, not present in the other catalytic Naas, is defined as the part providing organellar localization. Human eGFP-tagged Naa60 displays an organellar localization recombinantly expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and this localization pattern is lost and replaced by a cytosolic signal upon truncation of the last 61 amino acids. Naa60 uses a membrane targeting mechanism that is also functional in fungi, although Naa60 is not found in this kingdom. After incubation of the Naa60(189-242) peptide with Golgi-like liposomes composed of 52% phosphatidylcholine, 20% phosphatidylethanolamine, 15% cholesterol, 8% phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate, and 5% phosphatidylserine, a clear blue shift from 355 to 348 nm is observed, hence indicating an interaction between Naa60(189-242) and these liposomes, residue Trp227 dips into the membrane | Homo sapiens | - |
