Chemical changes to histones, the proteins that help to pack and organize DNA inside cells, play a key role in determining what genes will be consistently activated over the course of an animal or ...

Post-translational modifications (PTMs)—the chemical changes that proteins undergo following biosynthesis—account for most protein forms, or proteoforms. Indeed, according to conservative estimates, ...

At the University of Oxford, scientists have developed a nanopore technology that can identify three different post-translational modifications (PTMs) in individual proteins, even deep within long ...

Post-translational modifications (PTMs) play a key role in dynamic cellular processes, regulating gene expression, protein activity, localization, and degradation, as well as protein interaction.

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, ...

Respiratory infections, pink eye, or an upset stomach may seem like unrelated, mild inconveniences, but all of these ailments share one root cause: adenovirus infection. Many of us will encounter some ...

Tuberculosis is still one of the deadliest infectious diseases, causing over one million deaths each year worldwide. Additionally, about one-fourth of the world's population carries Mycobacterium ...
