General description

c-Myc (bHLHe39) is a transcription factor that regulates the expression of multiple genes involved in apoptosis, cell growth, differentiation, and proliferation. Active c-Myc is coupled to the MAX protein via c-Myc’s C-terminal helix-loop-helix leucine zipper (bHLHLZ) domain. The c-Myc-MAX heterodimer also interacts with a number of other transcription-related proteins including TRRAP, p107 and Miz-1, and c-Myc-MAX may indirectly regulate histone acetylases involved in chromatin remodeling. c-Myc is itself acetylated on lysine 323 by GCN5, and on lysine 148 and 157 by p300/CBP. The significance of c-Myc acetylation is still under investigation; however, previous studies have suggested that HAT-dependent acetylation of c-Myc may regulate its turnover and stability. c-Myc may play a role in various cancers such as Burkitt’s lymphoma.

Protein acetylation is a central event in orchestrating diverse cellular processes. However, current strategies to investigate protein acetylation in cells are often nonspecific or lack temporal and magnitude control. Here, we developed an acetylation tagging system, AceTAG, to induce acetylation

The MYC oncogenic transcription factor is acetylated by the p300 and GCN5 histone acetyltransferases. The significance of MYC acetylation and the functions of specific acetylated lysine (AcK) residues have remained unclear. Here, we show that the major p300-acetylated K148(149) and

The clearance of apoptotic cells by macrophages (efferocytosis) prevents necrosis and inflammation and activates pro-resolving pathways, including continual efferocytosis. A key resolution process in vivo is efferocytosis-induced macrophage proliferation (EIMP), in which apoptotic cell-derived nucleotides trigger Myc-mediated proliferation of pro-resolving
