Tyrosine sulfation as a protein post-translational modification.
Integration of inorganic sulfate into biological molecules plays an important role in biological systems and is directly involved in the instigation of diseases. Protein tyrosine sulfation (PTS) is a common post-translational modification that was first reported in the literature fifty years ago. However, the significance of PTS under physiological conditions and its link to diseases have just ...
متن کاملPost-translational modification of the fourth component of complement. Sulfation of the alpha-chain.
The fourth component of complement (C4) was found to incorporate radiolabel from [35S]O4 during synthesis in murine peritoneal macrophages and the human hepatoma-derived cell line, HepG2. The sulfate label was localized to the COOH-terminal autolytic fragment of the C4 alpha-chain. No label was seen associated with intracellular pro-C4. The structurally similar third and fifth components of com...
متن کاملComputational Prediction of Post-Translational Modification Sites in Proteins
The last several decades have witnessed rapid progresses in identification and functional analysis of post-translational modifications (PTMs) in proteins. Through temporal and spatial modification of proteins by covalent attachment of additional chemical groups and other small proteins, proteolytic cleavage or intein splicing, PTMs greatly expand the proteome diversity and play important roles ...
متن کاملPost-translational modification of PII signal transduction proteins
The PII proteins constitute one of the most widely distributed families of signal transduction proteins in nature. They are pivotal players in the control of nitrogen metabolism in bacteria and archaea, and are also found in the plastids of plants. Quite remarkably PII proteins control the activities of a diverse range of enzymes, transcription factors and membrane transport proteins, and in al...
متن کاملPost-translational modification and folding of secreted proteins.
The production of a functional protein does not end with the termination of the growing polypeptide chain. This, while clearly true of all proteins, is particularly obvious in the case of secretory proteins. While all proteins must fold to a functional conformation, and many must assemble into some supramolecular structure, secretory proteins must also make their way across membranes and throug...
