Lysine carboxylation: unveiling a spontaneous post-translational modification.
The carboxylation of lysine residues is a post-translational modification (PTM) that plays a critical role in the catalytic mechanisms of several important enzymes. It occurs spontaneously under certain physicochemical conditions, but is difficult to detect experimentally. Its full impact is unknown. In this work, the signature microenvironment of lysine-carboxylation sites has been characteriz...
متن کاملGenetic encoding of the post-translational modification 2-hydroxyisobutyryl-lysine.
We report the synthesis and genetic encoding of a recently discovered post-translational modification, 2-hydroxyisobutyryl-lysine, to the genetic code of E. coli. The production of homogeneous proteins containing this amino acid will facilitate the study of modification in full-length proteins.
متن کاملTyrosine 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 protein modification as a tool for transcription reprogramming.
Precise modulation of transcription plays a vital role in both development and the response of all higher organisms to their environment. Temporal activation or repression of specific genes is accomplished via a plethora of transcriptional regulators. However, relatively little is known about how the activities of these proteins are controlled. Recent findings indicate that post-translational m...
متن کاملIdentification of 67 Histone Marks and Histone Lysine Crotonylation as a New Type of Histone Modification
We report the identification of 67 previously undescribed histone modifications, increasing the current number of known histone marks by about 70%. We further investigated one of the marks, lysine crotonylation (Kcr), confirming that it represents an evolutionarily-conserved histone posttranslational modification. The unique structure and genomic localization of histone Kcr suggest that it is m...
