In bacteria, cell poles function as subcellular compartments where proteins localize during specific lifecycle stages, orchestrated by polar “hub” proteins. Whereas most described bacteria inherit an “old” pole from the mother cell and a “n…

NatD consist of the evolutionary conserved N-alpha acetyltransferase catalytic subunit Naa40p and is among the most selective N-terminal acetyltransferase (NAT) complexes identified to date. Here we identified a conserved 22 amino acid N-te…
