Generation of Mature Nα-Terminal Acetylated Thymosin α1 by Cleavage of Recombinant Prothymosin α
Nα-terminal acetylation of peptides plays an important biological role but is rarely observed in prokaryotes. Nα-terminal acetylated thymosin α1 (Tα1), a 28-amino-acid peptide, is an immune modifier that has been used in the clinic to treat hepatitis B and C virus (HBV/HCV) infections. We previously...
