Post-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 کاملPost-Translational Modifications of TRP Channels
Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels constitute an ancient family of cation channels that have been found in many eukaryotic organisms from yeast to human. TRP channels exert a multitude of physiological functions ranging from Ca2+ homeostasis in the kidney to pain reception and vision. These channels are activated by a wide range of stimuli and undergo covalent post-translational modifi...
متن کاملPost-Translational Modifications of Exosomal Proteins
Exosomes mediate intercellular communication and participate in many cell processes such as cancer progression, immune activation or evasion, and the spread of infection. Exosomes are small vesicles secreted to the extracellular environment through the release of intraluminal vesicles contained in multivesicular bodies (MVBs) upon the fusion of these MVBs with the plasma membrane. The compositi...
متن کاملAbsolute 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 کاملPost-translational modifications of protein biopharmaceuticals.
The majority of therapeutic proteins display one or more post-translational modifications (PTMs). These modifications normally influence the biochemical and therapeutic properties of such proteins. Choosing an expression system capable of generating an appropriate product PTM profile remains one of the most crucial decisions a drug developer must make. This review considers the PTMs most often ...
