N-alpha-acetyltransferase 25, NatB auxiliary subunit (NAA25)

The protein contains 972 amino acids for an estimated molecular weight of 112292 Da.

 

Non-catalytic subunit of the NatB complex which catalyzes acetylation of the N-terminal methionine residues of peptides beginning with Met-Asp-Glu. May play a role in normal cell-cycle progression. (updated: Feb. 4, 2015)

Molecular Function

The reference OMIM entry for this protein is 612755

Mitochondrial distribution and morphology 20, yeast, homolog of
Mdm20
Chromosome 12 open reading frame 30; c12orf30

DESCRIPTION

MDM20 is a component of N-acetyltransferase complex B (NatB). Human NatB performs cotranslational N(alpha)-terminal acetylation of methionine residues when they are followed by asparagine (Starheim et al., 2008).

CLONING

By searching a database for sequences similar to yeast Mdm20, Starheim et al. (2008) identified human MDM20. The deduced 972-amino acid protein has a calculated molecular mass of 112.3 kD. It has an N-terminal tetratricopeptide repeat and a putative C-terminal nuclear localization signal. MDM20 shares 20.4% and 92.9% amino acid identity with its yeast and mouse homologs, respectively. Western blot analysis detected MDM20 in all human cell lines examined. Immunofluorescence analysis of HeLa cells showed that MDM20 localized to the cytoplasm.

GENE FUNCTION

Using reciprocal immunoprecipitation analysis and Western blot analysis, Starheim et al. (2008) showed that endogenous MDM20 and NAT3 (NAT5; 610833) interacted directly in HEK293 cells. The immunoprecipitated complex showed NatB activity against the synthetic peptide MDEL, but not against any other peptide examined. MDM20 and NAT3 also associated with isolated HEK293 polysomes, as well as in the cytosolic fraction. Knockdown of either protein via small interfering RNA disrupted cell cycle progression. Knockdown of NAT3 led to reduced cell proliferation and G0/G1 arrest, whereas knockdown of MDM20 decreased the number of cells in the G0/G1 phase and resulted in some cell death. Starheim et al. (2008) concluded that MDM20 is part of the NatB complex that acetylates the N-terminal sequence met-asp-, and they suggested that NatB may have an additional role in cell cycle progression.

MAPPING

Hartz (2009) mapped the MDM20 gene to chromosome 12q24.13 based on an alignment of the MDM20 sequence (GenBank GENBANK AK023151) with the genomic sequence (build 36.1). ... More on the omim web site
