*A survey from over a decade ago (Flinta et al., Eur J Biochem 154, 193-196
(1986)), found N-acetyl proline in 3% of eukaryotic, acetylated proteins.
See Table 1, column 8.

Meanwhile, if anyone has a citation to a newer survey and/or a bibliography
on N-acetylation in general, I would be grateful for it.

JH
