Absolute quantitation of post-translational modifications
The cell’s fate is largely governed by the dynamics of cellular events, brought about by the interplay of various proteins, in which post-translational modifications (PTMs) play a key role. Therefore, a better understanding of post-translational modification is of utmost importance to a biochemist. Over the years much work in this regard has been achieved through mass spectrometry, however, the...
متن کاملPrediction of lysine post-translational modifications using bioinformatic tools.
Our understanding of the importance of lysine post-translational modifications in mediating protein function has led to a significant improvement in the experimental tools aimed at characterizing their existence. Nevertheless, it remains likely that at present we have only experimentally detected a small fraction of all lysine modification sites across the commonly studied proteomes. As a resul...
متن کاملProteomic databases and tools to decipher post-translational modifications.
Post-translational modifications (PTMs) are vital cellular control mechanism, which affect protein properties, including folding, conformation, activity and consequently, their functions. As a result they play a key role in various disease conditions, including cancer and diabetes. Proteomics as a rapidly growing field has witnessed tremendous advancement during the last decade, which has led t...
متن کاملPost-translational modifications of tubulin
Microtubules are the largest filamentous components of the eukaryotic cytoskeleton. In spite of their extraordinary level of structural conservation, microtubules fulfill a vast range of different functions in cells. How this functional diversity is achieved remains an open question; however, recent advances point towards post-translational modifications (PTMs) of tubulin as a potent mechanism ...
متن کاملEvent Extraction for Post-Translational Modifications
We consider the task of automatically extracting post-translational modification events from biomedical scientific publications. Building on the success of event extraction for phosphorylation events in the BioNLP’09 shared task, we extend the event annotation approach to four major new post-transitional modification event types. We present a new targeted corpus of 157 PubMed abstracts annotate...
