Allosteric post-translational modification codes.
Post-translational modifications (PTMs) have been recognized to impact protein function in two ways: (i) orthosterically, via direct recognition by protein domains or through interference with binding; and (ii) allosterically, via conformational changes induced at the functional sites. Because different chemical types of PTMs elicit different structural alterations, the effects of combinatorial...
متن کاملPost-translational modification by SUMO.
Post-translational modifications (PTMs) are chemical alterations to a protein following translation, regulating stability and function. Reversible phosphorylation is an example of an important and well studied PTM involved in a number of cellular processes. SUMOylation is another PTM known to modify a large number of proteins and plays a role in various cellular processes including: cell cycle ...
متن کاملGlobal Post-Translational Modification Discovery
A new global post-translational modification (PTM) discovery strategy, G-PTM-D, is described. A proteomics database containing UniProt-curated PTM information is supplemented with potential new modification types and sites discovered from a first-round search of mass spectrometry data with ultrawide precursor mass tolerance. A second-round search employing the supplemented database conducted wi...
متن کاملRegulatING chromatin regulators: post-translational modification of the ING family of epigenetic regulators.
The five human ING genes encode at least 15 splicing isoforms, most of which affect cell growth, differentiation and apoptosis through their ability to alter gene expression by epigenetic mechanisms. Since their discovery in 1996, ING proteins have been classified as type II tumour suppressors on the basis of reports describing their down-regulation and mislocalization in a variety of cancer ty...
متن کاملPotential Protein Post-translational Modification in Adiponectin
Post-translational modifications of proteins control many biological processes. This is also an important process in the pathogenesis of diabetes mellitus. Adiponectin is an insulin-sensitizing adipokine with antidiabetic, anti-atherogenic, anti-inflammatory and cardioprotective properties. The role of posttranslational modifications in regulating the biosynthesis of high molecular weight adipo...
