DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2023.1073539

Abstract: Serotonin N-acetyltransferase (SNAT) catalyzes the biosynthesis of N-acetylserotonin (NAS) and N-acetyltryptamine (NAT), two pleiotropic molecules with neurotransmitter functions. Here, we report the identification of a SNAT protein in the genus Staphylococcus. The SNAT gene identified… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Antioxidants"

DOI: 10.3390/antiox11030596

Abstract: Serotonin N-acetyltransferase is the penultimate enzyme in the melatonin biosynthetic pathway that catalyzes serotonin into N-acetylserotonin. Many SNAT genes have been cloned and characterized from organisms ranging from bacteria to plants and mammals. However, to… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "Antioxidants"

DOI: 10.3390/antiox12020319

Abstract: A new clade of serotonin N-acetyltransferase (SNAT), the penultimate enzyme in the melatonin biosynthetic pathway, has been reported in the archaeon Thermoplasma volcanium. The closest homolog of archaea SNAT in human was an N-alpha-acetyltransferase50 (Naa50).… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health"

DOI: 10.3390/ijerph20031865

Abstract: Rice bacterial blight (BB), caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo), is one of the top ten bacterial plant diseases worldwide. Serotonin N-acetyltransferase (SNAT) is one of the key rate-limiting enzymes in melatonin (MT) biosynthesis.… read more here.
