Post-translational modifications (PTMs) regulate numerous proteins and are important for many biological processes. Lysine 4-oxononanoylation (4-ONylation) is a newly discovered histone PTM that prevents nucleosome assembly under oxidative stress. Whether there are cellular enzymes that remove 4-ONyl from histones remains unknown, which hampers the further investigation of the cellular function of this PTM. Here, we report that mammalian SIRT2 can remove 4-ONyl from histones and other proteins i ...[more]
