The amino acid side chains of proteins undergo various post-translational modifications (PTMs) which significantly impact protein function and mediate complex cellular events. Measuring the dynamics, ...
Post-translational modifications (PTMs)—the chemical changes that proteins undergo following biosynthesis—account for most protein forms, or proteoforms. Indeed, according to conservative estimates, ...
Biochemists from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have discovered a new subclass of trifunctional enzymes in gram-positive bacteria, which play a critical role in the biosynthesis of an ...
When it comes to enzymes, protein abundance does not necessarily translate into protein activity: Post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation can dramatically alter enzyme function.
DOMEK is a multi-step pipeline which leverages mRNA display-derived next-generation sequencing data to derive kinetic information about substrates of post-translational modification enzymes.
Study reveals how an RNA enzyme drives the postnatal switch from glucose to fatty acids in heart cells, highlighting ketogenesis as essential for metabolism. Study: The tRNA methyltransferase Mettl1 ...
Lactylation, a recently identified post-translational modification, has emerged as important for immune regulation, tissue repair, cancer cell metabolism, and now, potentially, Alzheimer’s disease. In ...
Creative BioMart is pleased to announce the upgrade of its protein deubiquitination assay service, providing researchers with a more sensitive, flexible, and high-throughput platform to study ...
A pharmaceutical scientist at the National University of Singapore (NUS) has developed a method that can measure the kinetic efficiency of an enzyme against more than 200,000 potential peptide ...
