Naa10P puts a brake on PGC1α and fat browning

Abstract

Beige fat serves as a substantial metabolic sink that dissipates energy and has consequently attracted much attention as a target for improving metabolic health. A recent study has provided a new molecular target, the N-terminal acetyltransferase Naa10p, for harnessing beige-fat biogenesis and improving whole-body energy homeostasis1.
