N-terminal acetylation is a common eukaryotic protein modification that is primarily catalysed by the N-acetyl transferase complex A (NatA). Here, the authors present the crystal structure of NatA bound to Huntingtin yeast two-hybrid protein K (HypK) and show that HypK is a negative regulator of NatA.
