Post-translational modifications (PTMs) play a key role in dynamic cellular processes, regulating gene expression, protein activity, localization, and degradation, as well as protein interaction.

One of the first things that students learn when they enter a biology class is the central dogma: DNA → messenger RNA → proteins. Only about 3% of the human genome directly codes for proteins, which ...

Protein AMPylation represents a specialised post‐translational modification (PTM) in which an adenosine monophosphate (AMP) moiety is covalently attached to specific amino acid residues on target ...

Researchers have developed a method for studying an important, yet often overlooked, posttranslational modification.

Whole blood derived from six adult donors who were inoculated with BCG in their childhood was cultured with MDP1 alone, MDP1 in combination with G9.1, or in combination with the negative form of ...

Unlike bacteria or yeast, moss can produce large polypeptides of human collagen along with the post-translational modifications that make it stable and bioactive.

A research team led by Purdue University's W. Andy Tao has discovered a new type of protein modification related to cellular ...

A new study led by Nicolás Bologna, a CSIC researcher at the Center for Research in Agricultural Genomics (CRAG), sheds light on the crucial role of the N-terminal extension (NTE) of AGO proteins, ...

In the intricate regulation of inflammation, metabolic reprogramming and posttranslational modification (PTM) have emerged as pivotal players, offering new avenues for understanding the fine-tuned ...
